Relevant Characteristics of Power Lines Passing through Urban Areascovers a variety of problems in electric-power delivery that were considered for a long time in professional and scientific circles unsolvable. Taking into account the influence of all surrounding metal installations on the relevant characteristics of HV and EHV lines passing through urban and/or suburban areas, this reference provides safe and economical solutions on how to check and achieve prescribed safety conditions, determine the dangerous and harmful inductive influence of HV and EHV lines, enable compensation of deficiency for all unknowns, understand relevant data concerning surrounding metal installations, and more.This book is necessary for properly dimensioning cable systems, considering the existing underground structures near substations and providing engineers with the necessary information they need to design normal operations and determine fault events. Includes methodologies that enable solutions for several types of problems in electric-power delivery that were previously unsolvable Defines specific field measurements by guiding the development of corresponding analytical procedures Showcases a clear scope for the application for HV and EHV distribution networks
