Course Headline: Master the Art of Overhead Power-lines with our Comprehensive Course! 🌐➡️⚡

Course Aims:

This course is meticulously crafted to cover fundamental concepts associated with the physical design of Overhead Power-lines (OHPLs). Tailored for engineering enthusiasts from diverse backgrounds, this program promises a structured and digestible learning experience. Our aim is to equip you with a solid understanding of the principles and practices involved in designing robust transmission and distribution overhead power-lines systems.

Course Structure:

The course is divided into 8 major sections, each dedicated to exploring a key aspect of OHPLs. Here's what you can look forward to:

1. Common Power-line Definitions - Understand the terminology and jargon used in the industry.
2. Structural Design Approaches - Learn about the deterministic design approach, ultimate load design, and reliability-based design methods.
3. Mechanical Loading Criteria - Gain insights into weather-related loads, failure containment loading, construction and maintenance loadings, structure strength, and overload factors.
4. (🔧) Conductors & Overhead Ground Wires - Explore the common conductor types, selection considerations, OHGW selection considerations, design tension limits, sag tension calculations, and the effects of creep, temperature, and tension on conductors. Also, dive into typical conductor motions like Aeolian vibration and galloping.
5. Power-line Structures - Learn about classifications of power-line structures and different material types used, including wood, steel (monopoles, lattice towers).
6. (🎠) Insulators & Hardware - Understand the function of insulators, their materials, typical arrangements, and design criteria, as well as the role of power-line hardware.
7. Electrical Considerations - Study different types of electrical stresses, electrical clearances, insulator swing calculations, radio interference, and induction effects.
8. (📐) Power-line Design - Learn about line layout and routing considerations, right of ways and right of way width calculation, conductor and structure selection, line loading criteria, and typical power-line engineering deliverables.
