The Effects of Elastic Modulus Coefficient and Linear Expansion Coefficient of Overhead Conductor on Sag Behavior

The effects of elastic modulus coefficient and linear expansion coefficient of overhead distribution power line(ACSR ) on sag behavior in distribution line have been investigated to clarify the difference between specification and experimental level. The elastic modulus coefficients of Al wire and steel wire were , respectively Therefore, the computational composition elastic modulus coefficient of the power line was , while that of experimentally measured was . As a result, we found that elastic modulus coefficient which was experimentally measured was higher than that of computational by 8.7 %. However, when planner designs the sag of disoibution line, the elastic modulus coefficient of power line should be generally adopted. These two different using values lead to the sag difference of 0.62 m. The other results will be discussed.
