AIR COMMUNICATION LINES

    Purpose and classification of communication lines

LANs are designed to connect telephone or telegraph equipment installed in various locations.

Drugs by appointment  are divided into 3 classes:

    I class (backbone) - connect the Ministry with the management of roads and management between each other

    II class (road and intra-division lines) - link management with departments, separation between each other and with large precinct stations

    III class (local) - in-station, on the territory of large stations and nodes.

All drugs are divided into 2 types:

1). aerial lines of the VLAN

2). cable communication lines

    Requirements for communication lines

    the wires of the communication line must be isolated from each other (in the VLAN - air);

    the lines of the communication line must be isolated from the ground;

    the wires of the communication line must be protected from mutual interfering influences (protection-crossing, that is, the wires of the same circuit are swapped through a certain number of spans);

    the lines of communication lines should be protected from the dangerous effects of the contact network of electrified railways;

    wires of the communication line must be protected from lightning discharges (lightning conductor - steel wire 5 mm in diameter above the support by 15 cm, deepened into the ground by 0,7 m)

    Classification of overhead communication lines

VLS have a great mechanical strength, have long service life, allow communication over long distances (up to 250 km). The advantage of overhead communication lines is also the ease of detection and repair of damages.

Durability  depending on the weather conditions, VLANs are divided into 4 types:

1. O (light) - for southern regions with low ice intensity on wires (thickness of ice less than 5 mm)

2.N (normal) - for areas with an average glaze intensity (ice up to 10 mm)

3. U (strengthened) - for areas with a high intensity of ice (up to 15 mm)

4. OS (especially strengthened) - for areas with a particularly strong glaze ice (20 mm or more)

On the profile of the used supports  VLANs are divided into:

    with hook profile (low-conductor lines, up to 12 wires)

    with a traverse profile (multi-wire lines up to 40 wires)


    with a mixed profile

4. ELEMENTS OF VLAN

1. Supports

    wooden

Wooden supports are made of trees with sufficient mechanical strength (oak, pine, spruce, larch, fir).

Impregnation with antiseptics (zinc chloride, creosote oil) - to extend the life of wooden supports.

    reinforced concrete

All supports are subdivided:

    simple

    complex (anchor, semi-anchor)   Used for the stability of lines with a traverse profile, for the device of transitions through railroad cars, with elongated spans, when changing from overhead communication lines to cable lines.


2. Fittings

The fittings include:

- hooks

(on the horizontal part they have a thread for screwing into the supports);

- insulators

(porcelain, glass, plastic);

- traverses

(typical eight-pin)

3. Wires.

Wire is used as a wire - steel, copper, bimetallic.

Steel  - high mechanical strength, low cost; low electrical conductivity, is susceptible to corrosion. For protection against corrosion, zinc or add 0.2 - 0.4% copper (with copper additive)

Copper  - high electrical conductivity, not subject to corrosion; high cost, less durable;

Bimetallic  - is a steel core with a diameter of 3.2 mm with an outer copper layer of 0.4 mm.

Since October 1, 2003, Chapter 2.4 of the "Rules for the Installation of Electrical Installations" of the sixth edition

The requirements of the Rules for the installation of electrical installations are mandatory for all organizations, regardless of the form of ownership and organizational and legal forms, as well as for individuals engaged in entrepreneurial activities without the formation of a legal entity.

Application area. Definitions

2.4.1. This chapter of the Rules applies to AC power lines with a voltage of up to 1 kV, performed using insulated or uninsulated wires.

Additional requirements for overhead lines up to 1 kV are given in Ch. 2.5, 6.3 and 7.7.

Cable in-line inserts and cable branches from the line must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of Ch. 2.3.

2.4.2. Overhead transmission line (VL) with voltage up to 1 kV is a device for transmission and distribution of electricity through insulated or uninsulated wires located in the open air and fixed by linear reinforcement to supports, insulators or brackets, to the walls of buildings and to engineering structures.

An overhead power line with a voltage of up to 1 kV using self-supporting insulated wires (SIP) is designated VLI.

Self-supporting insulated wire - twisted into bundle insulated conductors, the supporting vein can be either isolated or not insulated. The mechanical load can be perceived either by the supporting vein, or by all conductors of the harness.

2.4.3. The main line is a section of the line from the feeding transformer substation to the end support.

Linear branches or branches to the input can be connected to the trunk line.

Linear branch from the overhead line is a section of the line connected to the overhead line, having more than two spans.

Branch from the HV to the input - a section from the support of the main line or the linear branch to the clamp (input isolator).

Branch from VLI is allowed to perform in the span.

2.4.4. The state of high-voltage lines in the calculations of the mechanical part:

  • normal mode - mode with unblocked wires;
  • emergency mode - mode with broken wires;
  • installation mode - a mode in conditions of installation of supports and wires.

Mechanical calculation of overhead lines up to 1 kV in emergency mode is not performed.

General requirements

2.4.5. The mechanical calculation of the OL elements must be carried out according to the methods described in Ch. 2.5.

2.4.6. Overhead power lines should be placed so that the supports do not obstruct the entrances to the buildings and entrances to the yards and do not impede traffic and pedestrians. In places where there is a danger of travel accidents (at entrances to yards, near road exits, when crossing roads), the supports must be protected from collision (for example, bollards).

2.4.7. On the supports of overhead lines at a height of at least 2 m from the ground after 250 m on the trunk of the overhead line, the following reference numbers shall be affixed (number); Posters that indicate the distance from the support of the overhead line to the cable communication line (on supports installed at a distance of less than 4 m to communication cables), the width of the security zone and the telephone of the owner of the overhead line.

2.4.8. When VLI passes through wooded areas and green plantations, clearing of glades is not required. In this case, the distance from the wires to the trees and bushes at the maximum sip and the maximum deviation of the sip should be at least 0.3 m.

When passing overhead lines with uninsulated wires along forest tracts and green plantations, clearing of a clearing is not necessary. In this case, the distance from the wires at the maximum sagging arrow or the greatest deviation to trees and bushes should be at least 1 m.

The distance from insulated wires to green plantations should be at least 0.5 m.

Climatic conditions

2.4.11. Climatic conditions for the calculation of overhead lines up to 1 kV in the normal mode should be adopted for both VL and 20 kV in accordance with 2.5.38 - 2.5.74. At the same time, for VL up to 1 kV one should take:

  • at calculation on 2.5.52: Cx = 1,1 - for SIP, free or covered with ice;
  • when calculating by 2.5.54 and 2.5.55:
  • γnw = γnг = 0,8 - for single-line overhead lines;
  • γnw = γnг = 0,9 - for single-circuit high-voltage lines with suspension on MF supports;
  • γnw = 1,0 and γnг = 1,2 for two-chain and multi-chain overhead lines, as well as for suspension of self-supporting nonmetallic optical cable (OKSN) on the supports of VL;
  • γp = 1,0 and K1 = 1,0 - in all cases.

2.4.12. Calculation of the length of the span of the branch from the overhead line to the input according to 2.4.20 should be carried out in the ice-free regime for two cases:

  1. wind direction at an angle of 90º to the axis of the overhead line, the wires of the overhead line are covered with ice, the thickness of the ice wall on the branch wires is b0 = 0.5b;
  2. wind direction along the overhead line (angle 0º), the thickness of the ice wall on the branch wires b0 = bе.

In both cases, it is necessary to take into account the reduction in the tension of the branch wires when the top of the support is deflected.

Wires. Linear fittings

2.4.18. All kinds of mechanical loads and impacts on self-supporting insulated wire should be perceived by this vein, and on a self-supporting insulated wire without a supporting wire - all the veins of a twisted bundle should be perceived.

2.4.19. The span length of the branch from the overhead line to the input should be determined by calculation, depending on the strength of the support on which the branch is performed, the height of the suspension of the branch wires on the support and on the input, the number and cross-section of the conductors of the branch wires.

At distances from the high-voltage line to the building, exceeding the estimated span span values, the required number of additional supports is established.

Supports

2.4.50. On VL can be used supports from a variety of materials.

The following types of supports should be used for overhead lines:

  1. intermediate, installed on the straight sections of the TL line. These supports in normal operating modes should not take efforts directed along the overhead line;
  2. anchor, installed to limit the anchor span, as well as in places where the number, grades and cross sections of the overhead lines are changed. These supports should perceive in normal operating conditions the forces from the difference in the tension of the wires directed along the overhead line;
  3. angled, installed in places where the direction of the VL route changes. These supports under normal operating conditions should take the resultant load from the traction of the wires of adjacent spans. Angular supports can be intermediate and anchor type;
  4. end, installed at the beginning and end of the OL, as well as in the places limiting the cable inserts. They are supports of the anchor type and should perceive unilateral traction of all wires in normal modes of operation of overhead lines.

The supports on which branches from the OL are performed are called tap-offs; the supports on which the intersection of high-voltage lines of different directions or the intersection of overhead lines with engineering facilities are crossed. These supports can be of all types mentioned.

2.4.51. The support structures should provide the possibility of installation:

  • street lighting fixtures of all types;
  • terminal cable sleeves;
  • protective apparatus;
  • sectioning and switching devices;
  • cabinets and shields for connecting electric receivers.

2.4.52. Supports, regardless of their type, can be free-standing, with struts or braces.

The supports can be attached to anchors installed in the ground, or to stone, brick, reinforced concrete and metal elements of buildings and structures. The cross-section of the braces is determined by the calculation. They can be multiwire or round steel. The cross section of single-wire steel braces should be at least 25 mm2.

2.4.53. Supports of overhead lines must be calculated according to the first and second limit state in the normal operation mode of the OL for climatic conditions according to 2.4.11 and 2.4.12.

Intermediate supports should be designed for the following combinations of loads:

  • simultaneous impact of a transverse wind load on wires free or covered with ice, and on the structure of the support, as well as loads from pulling the wires of the branches to inputs free of ice or partially covered with ice (2.4.12);
  • on the load from pulling the wires of the branches to the inputs covered with ice, while allowing for the deviation of the support under the action of the load;
  • on a conditional design load equal to 1.5 kN, applied to the top of the support and directed along the axis of the VL.

Angular supports (intermediate and anchor) should be designed for the resulting load from wire traction and wind load on the wires and the structure of the support.

The anchor supports should be designed for the difference in traction of the wires of adjacent spans and the transverse load from the wind pressure at ice and without ice on the wires and the structure of the support. For the smallest value of the tension difference, 50% of the largest single-sided tension of all wires should be taken.

The end supports must be designed for unilateral pulling of all wires.

Deflection supports are calculated on the resulting load from the tension of all wires.

2.4.54. When installing supports in the flooded areas of the route, where soil erosion or the impact of ice drifts are possible, the supports should be strengthened (earth padding, paving, punching, installation of ice-cutters).
