Abstract :
A sequel to an earlier paper by Carroll and Cozzens concerning corona loss measurements for the design of transmission lines, this paper presents data resulting from comparative tests on 6 different designs of 1.4-in. conductor, the size selected for a 275-kv transmission line from Boulder Dam to Los Angeles. Data covers 3-phase, singlephase, and rain tests, and adds materially to the corona loss data previously reported.
