Abstract :
Development of Compressed-Gas-Insulated transmission lines for voltages of 138 to 500 kV is described. Design, manufacture and installation are presented. Dielectric and mechanical tests data are given. A 230 kV single-phase outdoor test line of 230-ft length has been installed and voltage and current tests have been initiated. Thermal data for currents up to 3000 A are reported.
