A Multi-Variable DTR Algorithm for the Estimation of Conductor Temperature and Ampacity on HV Overhead Lines by IoT Data Sensors Open
The transfer capabilities of High-Voltage Overhead Lines (HV OHLs) are often limited by the critical power line temperature that depends on the magnitude of the transferred current and the ambient conditions, i.e., ambient temperature, win…

Lightning Performance Evaluation of Italian 150 kV Sub-Transmission Lines Open
A significant majority of overhead transmission lines’ (OHLs) outages is due to backflashovers caused by direct lightning strikes: the realistic assessment of the lightning performance is thus an important task. The paper presents the anal…
