Credit: 4 PDH
Length: 73 pages
This 4-hour course is the second in a series of courses on the design of medium voltage electrical transmission lines. This volume addresses clearances for transmission lines and includes not only clearances to ground but horizontal and vertical clearances to other conductors and structures. The application of the NESC is covered as well as adjustment factors for special cases.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Identify ground clearance requirements.
- Explain the factors that affect vertical clearances for conductors.
- Describe the vertical clearances of crossing conductors.
- Apply horizontal clearance requirements.
- Identify clearance requirements for conductors on different supports.
- Explain the relationship between maximum span and galloping.
- Describe the clearances between horizontal and vertical construction.
- Explain the impact of insulator swing on clearances.
- Calculate insulator swing.
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 25 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
