The comparison between the standard of electric power industry for Optical fiber composite overhead ground wires(OPGW) and others

IEC-60794-4-1 and IEEE Std 1138 are the international standards of Optical fiber composite overhead ground wires (OPGW) .The Chinese machinery industry standard JB/T 8999 - 1999 has been published in 1999,and the nations standard is now waiting for approval. The electric power industry standard (DL/T 832- 2003) has been issued and formally applied since 1 June 2003.There are some differences between these standards, such as technology requirements, verification rules, and some specifications. This paper describes the standard - making process of DL/T 832 - 2003 and the main differences comparing with others.
