Reconductoring using HTLS conductors. Case study for a 220 kV double circuit transmission LINE in Romania

Romania's inclusion in the European transport network and implementation of Aeolian turbines in massive groups imply increases in the transport capacity of some lines, required to transport or evacuate high powers over the existing capacities.
