Abstract
Growth and proposed developments in the Colorado Rocky Mountain area will overload the present system in the near future, necessitating expansion of present facilities and use of higher transmission voltages. An extensive program for the evaluation of corona, radio influence, and mechanical design under high-voltage and high-altitude conditions is described.
