Relevant Characteristics of Power Lines Passing through Urban Areas

Relevant Characteristics of Power Lines Passing through Urban Areas covers a variety of problems in electric-power delivery that were considered for a long time in professional and scientific circles unsolvable. Taking into account the influence of all surrounding metal installations on the relevant characteristics of HV and EHV lines passing through urban and/or suburban areas, this reference provides safe and economical solutions on how to check and achieve prescribed safety conditions, determine the dangerous and harmful inductive influence of HV and EHV lines, enable compensation of deficiency for all unknowns, understand relevant data concerning surrounding metal installations, and more.

This book is necessary for properly dimensioning cable systems, considering the existing underground structures near substations and providing engineers with the necessary information they need to design normal operations and determine fault events.

• Includes methodologies that enable solutions for several types of problems in electric-power delivery that were previously unsolvable
• Defines specific field measurements by guiding the development of corresponding analytical procedures
• Showcases a clear scope for the application for HV and EHV distribution networks

Ljubivoje M. Popović is a retired associate professor at the School of Electrical Engineering, University of Belgrade, and in 2010, he was elected as an IEEE R8 Industry Lecturer (Industry Continuing Education Program). He published more than 100 papers in home and international journals and proceedings of international conferences, 2 chapters in 2 international scientific books, and 2 scientific books under the titles Actual Parameters of Power Lines Passing Through Urban Areas (LAMBERT, Academic Publishing, 2015) and Practical Methods for Analysis and Design of HV Installations Grounding Systems (ELSEVIER, Academic Publishing, 2018). His work had an impact on some of the IEC publications [Technical Report IEC 60909-2, Ed 1(1992-09) and IEC standard 60909-3, Ed 2 (2003-09)] and was highlighted by Vertical News, High-beam Research, High-beam Business, GOLIATH Business News, and News-edge and is presented through scientific network Research Gate. He was elected a member of the IEC Technical Committee―IEC/TC73―short circuit currents.
