Abstract

Approximate formulae are developed for predicting overhead transmission line electrostatic effects. These formulae, which are based on numerous computer simulations, allow slide rule calculations of sufficient accuracy for preliminary design work. Measures to reduce electrostatic effects, such as increasing conductor height or erecting shield wires are compared. Shield wires are found to be quite effective.
