TP&C

The IEEE Subcommittee TP&C Line Design (SC)  covers all mechanical, thermal, construction, and economic aspects of overhead transmission lines. Working groups under this SC the following subjects:

  • ice galloping and Aeolian vibration of overhead lines

  • mechanical damping and control of wind-induced conductor motions

  • sag-tension calculations and measurements

  • structure loading calculations

  • conductor design and evaluation of conductor and hardware/connection

  • economic line design

  • voltage and thermal line uprating

  • annealing and creep elongation of conductor

  • high temperature, low-sag conductors

  • dynamic and static thermal line ratings

  • inspection, maintenance and asset management
