This is a book for engineers involved with the mechanical design of electrical transmission systems. It includes a review of transmission system engineering and the basics of analysis, and then goes on to cover in detail topics such as the construction of overhead lines, structural supports, insulation requirements, vibration, sag and tension analysis, right-of-way planning and methods of locating structures and underground cables. Also included is material about cost analysis methods and techniques which are unique to transmission line design where fixed costs are shared among joint users. In addition to this the development of system reliability reporting to conform to standard requirements is covered, along with a modern treatment of the design aspects of electrical power systems. New topics of importance, such as fault analysis, system protection, line balancing and economic analysis are contained, with a brief review of analytical techniques which are pre-requisites to designing a system or component.

This book covers the analysis and design considerations which are necessary to planning electrical transmission systems. Emphasis is placed on the total power system, namely distribution, transmission and generation. The basic tools to make the analysis for modern systems are provided, along with the inclusion of systems design examples. The topics covered include: basic concepts; parameters that must be considered to assure steady-state performance; problems and conditions that create abnormal operation distributions; symmetrical components and sequence impedances; analysis of balanced and unbalanced faults and transmission system protection, insulation, radiation and noise.
