IEEE Guide for the Parameter Measurement of AC Transmission Lines

In this guide, the field testing methodology and techniques are presented for measuring electrical parameters of AC transmission lines. The topics will include safety precautions; requirements for measuring instruments; measurement of induced voltage and current; phase verification and insulation resistance measurement; DC resistance measurement; off-line parameter measurement of symmetrical transmission line; off-line parameter measurement of asymmetrical transmission lines; eliminating power frequency interference during off-line measurement; zero-sequence parameter measurement with adjacent lines in operation and on-line parameter measurement of transmission lines.

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


No Active Projects

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.


No Inactive-Reserved Standards
