  • An ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission system has the advantages of low circuitry loss, high bulk capacity and long-distance transmission capabilities over conventional transmission systems, but it is easier for this system to cross fault rupture zones and become damaged during earthquakes. This paper experimentally and numerically investigates the seismic responses and collapse failure of a UHV transmission tower-line system crossing a fault. A 1:25 reduced-scale model is constructed and tested by using shaking tables to evaluate the influence of the forward-directivity and fling-step effects on the responses of suspension-type towers. Furthermore, the collapse failure tests of the system under specific cross-fault scenarios are carried out. The corresponding finite element (FE) model is established in ABAQUS software and verified based on the Tian-Ma-Qu material model. The results reveal that the seismic responses of the transmission system under the cross-fault scenario are larger than those under the near-fault scenario, and the permanent ground displacements in the fling-step ground motions tend to magnify the seismic responses of the fault-crossing transmission system. The critical collapse peak ground acceleration (PGA), failure mode and weak position determined by the model experiment and numerical simulation are in relatively good agreement. The sequential failure of the members in Segments 4 and 5 leads to the collapse of the entire model, whereas other segments basically remain in the intact state.

  • Localized wind events, in the form of tornadoes and downbursts, are the main cause of the large number of failure incidents of electrical transmission line structures worldwide. In this study, a numerical model has been developed to study the behaviour of self-supported transmission lines under various tornado events. The tornado wind fields used were based on a full three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics analysis that was developed in an earlier study. A three-dimensional finite element model of an existing self-supported transmission line was developed. The tornado velocity wind fields were then used to predict the forces applied to the modelled transmission line system. A comprehensive parametric study was performed in order to assess the effects of the location of the tornado relative to the transmission line under F2 and F4 tornado wind fields. The study was used to identify critical tornado configurations which can be used when designing transmission line systems. The results were used to assess the sensitivity of the members' axial forces to changes in the location of the tornado relative to the transmission line. The results were then used to explain the behaviour of the transmission line when subjected to the identified critical tornado configurations.

  • Live line work is well known for mending and maintenance of electrical power equipment. Nowadays needs of electric power supply quality require live line work In Korea, live line work is needed since 765kV transmission operation and restructure of electric power industry has changed. In other words, in case of suspension of power supply on the transmission is getting hard to keep up with efficiency of transmission operation, customer's confidence and generation-limited cost. Therefore live line work is very meaningful. As the condition of 765kV Transmission both bare hand and Helicopter live line technique must be used in moderation because of economic, geographical, environmental circumstances around steel tower.

  • It is important to determine of tower type whether suspension or tension tower in overhead transmission lines. When we select to tower type, we have need to check of swing angle for suspension string sets. And jumper wire of T/L in the strong wind area have to analysis of swing angle in order to clearance or length of tower arms. This paper is summarized the methods to calculate of swing angle for suspension string sets and jumper wires, and is calculated the swing angle. The calculated result have proposed to improved design specifications of overhead transmission line.

  • A Jumper wire is currently used to connect each fixed power line on both sides of dead end tower for overhead transmission line, but in case of a jumper wire swing under circumstances of typhoon, etc. and the air clearance is deficient then a flashover fault may Happen. Now the angle tower has the jumper support string to prevent a swing of jumper wire and to secure the air clearance between jumper wire and tower main body, but the flashover fault by swing of jumper wire was happened yl times across all over the country, because of the typhoon 'Rusa' in year 2002 and 'Maemi' in year 2003. This paper presents the design and development of 'Counter Weight' which enables to keep the swing angle of jumper wire under 40 degree in design condition to prevent a flashover fault by swing of jumper wire by a high wind pressure load in case of typhoon and have completed a mechanical and electrical characteristic test.

  • This paper analyses the characteristics of incomplete-journey double-circuit transmission lines on the same tower formed by single-circuit lines and double-circuit lines, and then presents a fault location algorithm based on identification of fault branch. With the relationship between the three-phase system and the double-circuit line system, a phase-mode transformation matrix for double-circuit lines can be derived. Based on the derived matrix, the double-circuit lines with faults can be decoupled, and then the fault location for an incomplete-journey double-circuit line is achieved by using modal components in the mode domain. The algorithm is divided into two steps. Firstly, the fault branch is identified by comparing the relationships of voltage amplitudes at the bonding point. Then the fault location, on the basis of the identification result, is calculated by using a two-terminal method, and only the fault distance of the actual fault branch can be obtained. There is no limit on synchronization of each terminal sampling data. The results of ATP-EMTP simulation show that the proposed algorithm can be applied within the entire line and can accurately locate faults in different fault types, fault resistances, and fault distances.

  • Because of the continuous growth of energy consumption and also the tendency to site power lines and pipelines along the same route, the close proximity of power lines and buried metallic pipelines has become more and more frequent. Therefore there has been and still is a growing concern about possible hazards resulting from the influence of power lines on metallic pipelines. When a ground fault occurs in an electrical installation the current flowing through the earthing electrode produces a potential rise of the electrode and of the neighbouring soil with regard to a remote earth. This paper analyzes the effects of ground faults when the current will flow into the soil from the foot of 345kV transmission line tower.

  • The simulation study of lightning faults reducing effects by the installation of surge arresters on the 154 kV transmission line is stated here. For the purpose of detailed simulation of arcing horn, a flashover model with dynamic characteristics of arcing horn gap was represented as a non-linear inductance which is controlled by EMTP/TACS(Electromagnetic Transient Program/fransient Analysis of Control Systems) switches. The back flashover inducing current was increased from 50 kA to 88 kA by the installation of surge arresters on the transmission line which has one ground wire and 20 ohms of tower footing resistances. The great advantage of surge arrester installation on one circuit of the double circuit transmission line is to prevent the simultaneous back flashover up to 190 kA.
