Abstract :
Thermal rating calculation for bare overhead conductor can be done by using conductor Weather Model (WM). The critical information required in verification of the thermal rating calculation result is the conductor temperature. This paper discusses about experiments that has been conducted to verify the accuracy of the conductor temperature calculation. The experiment was also conducted to determine time to thermal-overload of a transmission line conductor.
