As a follow-up on his story on tunnel radio, Nick Langan explores college campus carrier-current radio and hears from readers ...

And of course, more aluminum means these advanced conductors can carry more current. Another way to increase the capacity in advanced conductors is by switching to trapezoidal wires.

The conductor current-carrying capacity is derived through exclusive reliance on prescribed environmental variables, such as maximum ambient temperature and negligible wind conditions [5].

Based on the coupling theory of electric field and heat flow field, a temperature field and current carrying capacity analysis model for high-voltage three core cross-linked polyethylene cable and its ...

Do you understand the conductor and equipment requirements for services?

Instead, AEP replaced 240 miles of wires on an existing line with advanced conductors, which took less than three years and increased the carrying capacity of the lines by 40 percent.

With the rapid development of economy, there is a higher demand for the transmission capacity of transmission lines. In this paper, the dynamic calculation of conductor current carrying capacity is ...
