Techno – economic study of 33 kV distribution lines using aerial bundle cable and spacer cable

Power utility companies typically select their preferable cable design based on the power flow and results of economic analyses. The power flow analysis is a crucial process in evaluating the design and typically being carried out as early as in planning stage prior to the construction stage. It ana...
