The above data is valid only for a particular design of towers and is shown as a sample. The
specific data for the type of towers being provided on the line is to be used.
Calculation of Load
(A) Wind pressure on crossing span:
Conductor: - 3x2/3x21/1000x240x45 = 453.6 kg
Earth wire: - 1x2/3x9.45/1000x240x45 = 68 kg
Total: = 521.6 kg
(B) Wind load on structure:
3/2xArea of structure x Wind pressure
a) Loc. No. 31 (400kV,B+3) = 3/2x16x45= 1080 kg
b) Loc. No. 32 (400kV,B) = 3/2x15x45 = 1012.5 kg
(C) Wind load on structure due to conductor & Earth Wire load on both side:
2/3 x diameter of conductor x Weight span of conductor & Earth wire both side wind
load
(i) Loc. No. 31 = 129m
(ii) Loc. No. 32 = 111+262 = 373m
a) Wind Load on Loc. No. 31 = 2/3x45x129x (3x21/1000+1x9.45/1000) = 280.38 kg.
b) Wind Load on Loc. No. 32 = 2/3x45x373x (3x21/1000+1x9.45/1000) = 810.72 kg.
(D) Total Load on structure:
a) Loc. No. 31 = 1080+280.38 = 1360.38 kg
b) Loc. No. 32 = 1012.5 + 810.72 = 1823.22 kg
CALCULATIONS
132 kV Overhead crossing BNGM RAS Track
Crossing Span: - 245 m
a) Sag at 0deg C, full wind & FOS= 4
Effective weight of conductor (Wr) = 1.16 kg/m
Max. Working Tension (T1) = (Ultimate tensile strength) / (Factor of safety)
= 9144 / 4 = 2286 kg
2
Sag at same level = WL / 8T
= (1.16x245x245) / (8x2286)
= 3.81 m
b) Sag at 75deg C, initial temp 0degC, No wind & FOS= 4
Initial working Tension (T1) = 9144 / 4
= 2286 kg
Effective loading = 1.346 kg/m
Unit wt of Conductor = 0.974 kg/m
Max. Working Tension (T2) = 1159 kg
Sag at same level at 75 deg C = WL2/ 8T
= (0.974x245x245) / (8x1159)
= 6.31 m
c) Sag at 75deg C, No wind & FOS= 4, initial temp = 32.2degC
Temperature diff. (32.2 deg C) = 42.8 deg C
Max. Working Tension (T3) = 1588 kg
Sag at same level at 75 deg C with initial temp. 32.2 deg C = WL2/ 8T
= (0.974x245x245) / (8x1588)
= 4.602 m
Height difference between towers = 4.05 m
Tower no. 31 = B+3
