Each leg 2×240kN , 2×300kN, 2×400kN, 2×550kN types of strings are recommended to be used for V type composite insulator strings. Refer to the following for single joint and double joints V string arrangements in light ice area: Figure 1 Schematic Diagram for Single Joint and Double Joints V String in Light Ice Area 4) L Type String L type string is used in small tangent angle tower, as per calculation, 2×300kN and 2×400kN combination should be adopted for L type string, the angle of which are 60°+30°, 60°+35°, 60°+40° and 60°+45° respectively, with double hanging points, refer to the following for L type string arrangements: Figure 2 Schematic Diagram of L Type String Arrangement in Light Ice Area Hardware Web: www.JS Hardware.com , Email: sales@js hardware.com &#x/MCI; 0 ;&#x/MCI; 0 ;2.3.2 Conductor Tension String 1) Tension String Type The maximum load of tension string in 10 mm ice area is 372.96 kN, tension string insulator strength is required to be 1007kN. While that in 15 mm ice area is 408.52 kN, and a tension string insulator strength of 1103 kN is required.

Number of Insulators Cost for Each base Tower (10 thousand yuan) 37.63 36.10 39.44 From the above we can see: triple joints 400kN insulator is with competitive price, the issue to be cleared is the influences on the weight of the tower of the three types insulator strings. According to previous experiences, quadruple joints 300kN, triple joints 400kN and double joints 550kN insulator string types are with little influence to the tower weight, price will be the dominant factor, assuming 515 bases for the whole line tension towers, when calculating at a minimum price difference of RMB 15.3 thousand, there will be a saving of RMB 7.88 million for the whole line when using triple joints 400kN type, this is a considerable amount for this engineering, the triple joints 400kN insulator string is with obviously lowest price, quadruple joints 300kN is with a higher price and double joints 550kN, the highest. Above all, the least joints 3×400kN tension string in light ice area is suggested to be the first choice, and 3×400kN, the second choice, 2×550kN (light ice area), the third choice.

Table 7 Rec ommended Values of the Conductor Joints Spacing Ice Area Suspension String Tension String Light Ice Area 650mm 650mm .4 Insulator String Assembly Type in Heavy Ice Area According to the conclusion in Technical Research of Heavy Ice Area Line Design, disk insulator should be used in heavy ice area. .4.1 Conductor Suspension String As per calculation, tower weight can be decreased when V string is used in heavy ice area, meanwhile the using of V string restricts the wind shifting of the insulator string, reduces the corridor width. Therefore V string is recommended to be used as conductor insulator string in heavy ice area. The maximum shifting angle of windward leg insulator string should be controlled within 7 , V string angle should be designed according to the following: Table 8 Heavy Ice Area V String Angle (20 mm and 30 mm ice, 30m/s wind) Tower Type Kv Coefficient Wind Shifting Angle V String Angle ZV21 0.85 ZV22 0.65 49.7 ZV23 0.75 ZV31 0.85 ZV32 0.65 49.7 ZV33 0.75 According to the conductor selection and separation number in heavy ice area, and based on mechanical load calculation, the conductor suspension V string configuration in heavy ice area of this engineering is as following: The combination of each leg sin gle joint 400kN and 550kN insulator strings and double joints 210kN, 300kN and 400kN insulator strings can be used for 20 mm ice area conductor suspension V string.

In order to avoid the uneven ice covering and the uneven force of double joints insulators or the collision of them when in off ice jumping, it is recommended to use single hanging point for double j oints V type string in heavy ice area. Refer to Figure 7 5 for double joint V type strings arrangement in heavy ice area. Figure 7 5 Schematic Diagram for Heavy Icy Area Double Joints V String .4.2 Conductor Tension String 1) The maximum load of each pole conductor tension string in 20 mm ice area is 436.3kN, therefore 3×400kN and 4×300kN types can be used as tension strings. The maximum load of each pole conductor tension string in 30 mm ice area is 59 2.42kN, the insulator strength of the tension string is required to be 1599.5kN, therefore 3×550kN and 4×400kN types can be used as the tension strings.

Therefore, cage type rigid jumper is recommended for strain tower. At present there are two patterns of cage rigid jumpers of V String a String. it will add an additional cost of RMB 6,580,000 by adopt V String cage rigid jumper than I string cage rigid jumper for the whole line. However, the property to avoid wind deflection of V string cage rigid jumper and its electric reliability i Hardware Web: www.JS Hardware.com , Email: sales@js hardware.com &#x/MCI; 1 ;&#x/MCI; 1 ;&#x/MCI; 2 ;&#x/MCI; 2 ; &#x/MCI; 3 ;&#x/MCI; 3 ;Figure 7 Diagram of arrangement of cage rigid jumper .6 Earth wire fittings As being computed for mechanic property and tested for overload capacity on heavy icing area, 20mm of the earth wire and off ice area shall adopt LBGJ 180 20AC aluminum clad steel standed conductor and 30mm ice area shall adopt G 210 galvanized steel stranded wire. Suspension fitting string of earth wire and strain fitting string should directly connected to the ground. .8 Main selection of fittings Fittings mainly include tower connecting fittings, suspension clamps, six yoke plates, spacer dampers, and grading rings. Fittings are the important parts connected to circuit for safe operation. If fittings become ineffective and damaged, circuit will be damaged and interruption of power supply will be caused. Therefore, fitt ings shall be of high reliability. They shall meet current related standards and other special requirements in this project. In addition, the conveniences to transport, install, repair, and replace fittings shall be taken seriously.

According to the distribution condition of suspension string and patterns of strain string, there are six strength grades of fittings for connect ing towers, are 320kN, 420kN, 530kN, 640kN, 840kN, and 1060kN. Whole forging workmanship shall be used to process fittings for connecting towers. 2.8.2 Six bundle suspension yoke plate The key hardware fittings in suspension string is the type selection of six bundle suspension yoke plate, which adopts combination yoke plate and integral yoke plate in 750kV AC transmission line.The six bundle suspension yoke plate of 500kV compact line in China all adopt integral type, which have the advantage of stability, few er hardware fittings, simply structure, but heavier for single part. It is easy to transport in mountainous area from the experience of design and construction. Therefore, the integral six bundle suspension yoke plate is recommended in this project. Six ndle suspension integral yoke plate is as the following drawing: Drawing 7 Hardware Web: www.JS Hardware.com , Email: sales@js hardware.com &#x/MCI; 0 ;&#x/MCI; 0 ;It may adopt 420kN 640kN 840kN 1280kN 1680kN (In heavy icing areas) because the strength of suspension yoke plate is same as t he strength of insulator string. 2.8.3 Six bundle tension yoke plate The six bundle tension yoke plate also has two types: integral and combination type . The integral type is good in stability, fewer hardware fittings, simply structure. The single piece of com bination yoke plate is easy to fabricated, transport and installation of its light weight. It recommends combination yoke plate to the project area with 20mm and below, due to integral yoke plate is weight 200kg for a single part, it is inconvenient for tr ansport and installation. While for the area of 30mm icing areas, it is recommended to use integral type because of good stability of integral type. The following drawing is the recommended six bundle tension string combination yoke plate and integral yoke plate when tension string adopts 3×400kN insulator string.

There are two anti coro Hardware Web: www.JS Hardware.com , Email: sales@js hardware.com &#x/MCI; 0 ;&#x/MCI; 0 ;swinging up and down of suspensi on clamp is small, because of the stressed shaft of trunnion type suspension clamp is on the axle wire of conductor, that’s to say the caused stress by the swinging up and down of suspension clamp is small to conductor, and will minimize the fatigue damage of conductor to the most, Hardware Web: www.JS Hardware.com , Email: sales@js hardware.com &#x/MCI; 0 ;&#x/MCI; 0 ; &#x/MCI; 1 ;&#x/MCI; 1 ;4) There should be enough contacting surface between the suspension clamps and the installed conductors, and the damages caused by faul t current will minimize. 5) The grip strength of the suspension clamps should no less than 24% of the calculated tensile strength of the conductors; According to the situations of the suspension string applied to this project, the strength of suspension clamps will classified to four grades, 100kN, 160kN, 210kN and 300kN (for the heavy ice zones). it is usually install the preformed armor rods at the condition of large vertical span, The trunnion type suspension clamp The envelop type suspension clamp Fig. 7 11 The suspension clamp types For ±800kV EHV DC transmission line projects, it is required to used products Hardware Web: www.JS Hardware.com , Email: sales@js hardware.com &#x/MCI; 0 ;&#x/MCI; 0 ;with good performance; and also have the requirement on the products of large operation experiences.

While by embed the elastomer in the joints, the elastomer damping type spacers will consume the energy of vibration, which obviously restrain the aeolian vibration and sub span oscillation. And as our exper ience, the effectiveness are perfect. To install the elastomer damping type spacers with unequal space is recommended. The clamp head of spacers may fall off and led to damaged under the huge forces of the rotation and dancing phenomena caused by coverin g ice in heavy ice zones, especially the jumping of conductors because of ice. That will effect the safe operating of the transmission lines. And there is already successful operating experience adopt preformed spacers to slove the problem As above li sting, elastomer damping type integral spacers are recommended in light ice zones, while preformed type spacers are recommended in heavy ice zones.

In insulator string, the voltage borne by single piece of insulator will also increase. For the safe working condition of the insulators, the voltage borne by single piece of insulator of ultra high voltage line shall not increased greatly compared with that of extra high voltage, that’s to say the required that voltage percentage borne by single piece of insulator of extra high voltage shall decrease, which requires a relatively great improvement in the design of corona ring. For the tension insulator strings, due to the coupling length is relatively long, with more the quantity of joining fittings, and the coupling type is complex, in order to elinimate the corona loss of the fittings, as well as the radio inference and audibl noise level, it’s necessary to proceed effective shield to the fittings of tension string.
