6) A transmission line has diameter of 20 mm and weight of 1 kg/meter. The horizontal wind 1 point
pressure is 40 kg/m2 of projected area with ice coating of 10 mm. Density of ice is 900 kg/m3 . The
resultant force (kg) per meter length of the conductor will be

7) A transmission line has a span of 200 meter between level supports. The line conductor has 1 point
a cross sectional area of 1.50cm2 and weight 2 kg/meter. If the ultimate breaking stress of the conductor
is 4000 kg/cm2 , then calculate the working tension (kg) Consider factor of safety as 4.

10)A transmission line conductor near a river crossing is supported by the two towers of height 2 points
60 meter and 100 meter respectively above the water level. The horizontal distance between the two
towers is 250 meter. Tension of the conductor is 3000 kg. Find the clearance between the conductor and
water at a point midway between these two towers. Weight of the conductor is 0.5 kg/m. [Conductor
