COMPUTATION FOR SAG AND TENSION (VALUES) AS REQUIRED IN THE

PLOTTING OF SAG TEMPLATE FOR 138 kV STEEL POLE TRANSMISSION LINES

Type of Conductor 795 MCM ACSR/AS

Diameter (mm) D 27.760
Weight (kg/m) W1 1.460
Diameter of Aluminum Strand (mm) AL 3.080
Diameter of Alum-Clad Strand (mm) AS 3.080
Total Area of Aluminum (mm²) Al 402.860
Total Area of Alum-Clad Steel (mm²) As 52.200
Total Area of Conductor (mm²) A 455.060
Wind Pressure on Wires (kg/m²) P 110.580
Ruling Span S 120.000
Modulus of Elasticity (kg/m²) E 7,470.000
Coefficient of Linear Expansion/°C C 0.00002050
Worst Condition Temperature (°C) t1 15.000
Ultimate Tension (kg) UTS 12,600.000
Maximum Working Tension (% UTS) MWT Final Loaded 0.200
Un. Init. Working Tension (% UTS) UIWT Initial Unloaded 0.150
Un. Final Working Tension (% UTS) UFWT Final Unloaded 0.250
Final Condition No Wind
Temperature °C t2 90.000
Loading Factor (Still Air) Q2 1.000
Final Temperature °C (t2-t1) tf 75.000

Maximum Tension (T) = MWT x UTS = 2,520.00

Wind Load on Wire (P1) = P x D = 3.07

Vertical Factor (W2) = [ (P1)² + (W)² ]^½ = 3.40

Solving for Critical Span : (L)

t1 = 15.00 W1 = 1.46 T1 = 3,150.00

t2 = 15.00 W2 = 3.40 T2 = 2,520.00

This is the condition where the final conductor tension in still air is equal to T1
and, the final conductor tension in loaded condition is equal to T2.

Using Weill formula :

T2^3 + T2^2 * [ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*L^2 + ((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1]-(W2^2*E*A)/24*(L^2) =0

(X) T2^3+T2^2*[ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*Lc^2+((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1] = -3.468378E+09

(Y) (W2^2*E*A)/24*Lc^2 = 4.509085E+09

X-Y= -7,977,463,285.98
Lc (m) = 52.49

Calculation of Creep :

Initial Tension at 15°C at 120 m = 1,890.00

Initial Sag (m) = 0.27

Final Tension at 15°C at 120 m = 3,150.00

Final Sag (m) = 0.16

1
Sag difference (m) = -0.11

Length of Conductor Catenary (m)

Ll = 2*(T1/W1)*sinh((Lc/2)/T1/W1)

L1 = 52.49
L2 = 52.49
L2 - L1 = 0.00
% creep = -4.38E-03

Calculation of Temperature Shift to Represent Creep Equivalence

Initial Tension at 15°C = 1,890.00

Final Tension at 15°C = 3,150.00

Using Weill Formula :

(X) T2^3+T2^2*[ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*Lc^2+((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1] = 2.884263E+10

(Y) (W2^2*E*A)/24*Lc^2 = 8.318344E+08

(X) - (Y) = 28,010,798,735.92

(t2-t1) °C = 20.29

Derivation of Sag Template Curve for Profiling

t1 = 15.00 W1 = 1.46 T1 = 2,520.00

t2 = 90.00 W2 = 3.40 T2 = ????

Using Weill Formula :

(X) T2^3+T2^2*[ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*L^2+((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1] = 3.601172E+09

(Y) (W2^2*E*A)/24*L^2 = 2.356665E+10

(X) - (Y) = -19,965,475,443.53

T2 (kgf) = 914.55

Sag Template can be obtained by the catenary formula :

Sag = (T2/W2)*COSH(L/(2*(T2/W2)))-(T2/W2)

COMPUTATION FOR SAG AND TENSION (VALUES) AS REQUIRED IN THE

PLOTTING OF SAG TEMPLATE FOR 69 kV STEEL POLE TRANSMISSION LINES

Type of Conductor 336.4 MCM ACSR/AS

Diameter (mm) D 18.280
Weight (kg/m) W1 0.655
Diameter of Aluminum Strand (mm) AL 2.888
Diameter of Alum-Clad Strand (mm) AS 2.245
Total Area of Aluminum (mm²) Al 170.500
Total Area of Alum-Clad Steel (mm²) As 27.710
Total Area of Conductor (mm²) A 198.210
Wind Pressure on Wires (kg/m²) P 110.580
Ruling Span S 120.000
Modulus of Elasticity (kg/m²) E 7,470.000
Coefficient of Linear Expansion/°C C 0.00002050
Worst Condition Temperature (°C) t1 15.000
Ultimate Tension Strength (kg) UTS 12,600.000
Maximum Working Tension (% UTS) MWT Final Loaded 0.400
Un. Init. Working Tension (% UTS) UIWT Initial Unloaded 0.150
Un. Final Working Tension (% UTS) UFWT Final Unloaded 0.450
Final Condition No Wind
Temperature °C t2 90.000
Loading Factor (Still Air) Q2 1.000
Final Temperature °C (t2-t1) tf 75.000

Maximum Tension (T) = MWT x UTS = 5,040.00

Wind Load on Wire (P1) = P x D = 2.02

Vertical Factor (W2) = [ (P1)² + (W)² ]^½ = 2.12

Solving for Critical Span : (L)

t1 = 15.00 W1 = 0.66 T1 = 5,670.00

t2 = 15.00 W2 = 2.12 T2 = 5,040.00

1st This is the condition where the final conductor tension in still air is equal to T1
2nd and, the final conductor tension in loaded condition is equal to T2.

Using Weill formula :

T2^3 + T2^2 * [ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*L^2 + ((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1]-(W2^2*E*A)/24*(L^2) =0

(X) T2^3+T2^2*[ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*Lc^2+((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1] = X -1.594534E+10

minus
(Y) (W2^2*E*A)/24*Lc^2 = Y 7.675250E+08

X-Y= -16,712,861,242.97
3rd Lc (m) = 52.49 k?

Calculation of Creep :

Initial Tension at 15°C at 120 m = 1,890.00

Initial Sag (m) = 0.12

Final Tension at 15°C at 120 m = 5,670.00

Final Sag (m) = 0.04

Sag difference (m) = -0.08

Length of Conductor Catenary (m)

Ll = 2*(T1/W1)*sinh((Lc/2)/T1/W1)

L1 = 52.49
L2 = 52.49
L2 - L1 = 0.00
% creep = -1.23E-03

Calculation of Temperature Shift to Represent Creep Equivalence FROM 15 to 90

Initial Tension at 15°C = 1,890.00

Final Tension at 15°C = 5,670.00

 practice

Using Weill Formula :

(X) T2^3+T2^2*[ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*Lc^2+((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1] = 1.419790E+11

(Y) (W2^2*E*A)/24*Lc^2 = 7.299085E+07

(X) - (Y) = 141,905,993,693.15

(t2-t1) °C = 20.29 k?

Derivation of Sag Template Curve for Profiling

t1 = 15.00 W1 = 0.66 T1 = 5,040.00

t2 = 90.00 W2 = 2.12 T2 =

Using Weill Formula :

(X) T2^3+T2^2*[ ((W1^2*E*A)/24*T1^2)*L^2+((t2-t1)*C*E*A)-T1] = -1.533924E+09

(Y) (W2^2*E*A)/24*L^2 = 4.011455E+09

(X) - (Y) = -5,545,378,754.20

T2 (kgf) = 914.55 k?

Page 11

Sag Template can be obtained by the catenary formula :

Sag = (T2/W2)*COSH(L/(2*(T2/W2)))-(T2/W2)
