Review on Application of Utility Poles for Power Transmission
Abstract: Power transmission is generally carried out using transmission poles of various materials and cross sections. However, their utilization depends on climatic conditions and external loads acting on them. For an electric overhead system, the supports for the conductor and equipment must withstand the forces imposed on them, while the conductors themselves must be sufficiently strong enough to support their own weight and the forces imposed on them. The forces comprise …
