Abstract

The system performance characteristics of 765-kV versus 345-kV transmission are discussed, and the system planning studies, analyses, and considerations that led to the adoption of 765- kV transmission as a new EHV overlay for the American Electric Power system to be superimposed on the existing 345-kV transmission network are described.
