Standard Test Method for Stress-Strain Testing for Overhead Electrical Conductors

Importancia y uso:

5.1 To model the mechanical characteristics of overhead electrical conductor, stress-strain characteristics must be determined. The most accurate method for determination of these characteristics is a laboratory stress-strain test. These mechanical characteristics can then be used to determine the strain response of a conductor to mechanical loads, and thus predict the sag of the conductor. This can then be used to determine the required installation parameters to provide safe clearance and tension for the conductor usage.
