Title :
Live-Line Maintenance Methods
Abstract :
This paper covers methods and equipment for live-line maintenance. It recommends minimum insulation and approach distances calculated on an engineering basis in terms of flashover and withstand levels for equipment and gaps. These recommendations are flexible and can accommodate revision in basic concepts. They present a basis from which working clearances and methods can be developed for specific needs in particular applications.
