ELECTRICAL DESIGN OF A 400 KV COMPOSITE TOWER -...

This book presents an innovative concept for designing a 400 kV double circuit composite tower.
The major challenges encountered by the authors in the electrical design process of the
composite tower are addressed. They concern material selection for the full composite cross-arm
core  electrical insulation of the cross-arm  electrical dimensioning of the full composite
tower  lightning shielding performance and failure of the full composite tower. The electric
field performance of the tower's insulation has been investigated theoretically by using finite
element method and experimentally by testing different fiber reinforced polymers as candidates.
The book reports in detail those finite element simulations and tests  together with the
authors' recommendations on the most suitable materials and manufacturing process as well as
conductor clamp designs for the cross-arm. Another important issue of the full composite tower
which concerns the environmental aspects of thefull composite tower  has also been evaluated.
This book offers a timely reference guide on a highly innovative topic  addressing researchers
working on power transmission system both in industry and academia.
