Seasonal variation of transmission line outages in Peninsular Malaysia

Researchers have observed the impact of climate changes on overhead line outages. It is known that overhead lines are very prone to lightning strikes due to their height and location which are normally in an open and exposed area. Studies have also reported that transmission and distribution lines e...
