SAG AND TENSION
BY – KAPIL SHRIVASTAVA
DEFINATION
SAG:-The difference in level between
points of supports and the lowest point
on the conductor is called sag.`
WHY SAG PROVISION IS MANDATORY
Sag is mandatory in transmission line
conductor suspension. The conductors are
attached between two supports with
perfect value of sag. It is because of
providing safety of the conductor from
not to be subjected to excessive tension.
In order to permit safe tension in the
conductor, conductors are not fully
stretched; rather they are allowed to have
sag.
SOME IMPORTANT POINTS
 When same leveled two supports hold the conductor,
bend shape arises in the conductor. Sag is very small
with respect to the span of the conductor.
 Sag span curve is like parabolic.
 The tension in each point of the conductor acts always
tangentially.
 Again the horizontal component of the tension of
conductor is constant throughout conductor length.
 The tension at supports is nearly equal to the tension at
any point of the conductor.
How to Calculate Sag?
Sag calculation is classified on two
Conditions -
A. When supports are at equal levels
B. When supports are not at equal
levels

WHEN SUPPORTS ARE AT EQUAL
LEVELS
l = Length of span
w = Weight per unit length of
conductor
T = Tension in the conductor.
Consider a point p on the
conductor.
•Taking the lowest point o as
the origin, let the co-ordinates
of point p be x and y.
•Assuming that the curvature
is so small that curved length
is equal to its horizontal
projection (i.E., Op = x),
Two forces acting on the portion OP of the conductor are –
(a) The weight wx of conductor acting at a distance x/2 from O.
(b) The tension T acting at O.
WHEN SUPPORTS ARE NOT AT
EQUAL LEVELS
 In hilly areas, we generally come across conductors suspended
between supports at unequal levels.
conductor suspended between two supports A and B which are at different
levels. The lowest point on the conductor is O.
l = Span length
h = Difference in levels between two supports
x1 = Distance of support at lower level (i.e., A) from O
x2 = Distance of support at higher level (i.e. B) from O
T = Tension in the conductor
NOTE
EFFECT OF WIND AND ICE LOADING
In actual practice, a conductor may have ice coating and
simultaneously subjected to wind pressure. The weight of
ice acts vertically downwards i.e., in the same direction as
the weight of conductor. The force due to the wind is
assumed to act horizontally i.e., at right angle to the
projected surface of the conductor. Hence, the total force
on the conductor is the vector sum of horizontal and
vertical forces.

NUMERICALS
Q:1 A 132 kV transmission line has the following data :
Wt. of conductor = 680 kg/km ; Length of span = 260 m
Ultimate strength = 3100 kg ; Safety factor = 2
Calculate the height above ground at which the conductor should be
supported. Ground clearance required is 10 meters.
Q:2 A transmission line has a span of 150 m between level supports. The
conductor has a cross-sectional area of 2 cm2. The tension in the conductor is
2000 kg. If the specific gravity of the conductor material is 9·9 gm/cm3 and
wind pressure is 1·5 kg/m length, calculate the sag. What is the vertical sag?
Q:3 The towers of height 30 m and 90 m respectively support a transmission
line conductor at water crossing. The horizontal distance between the towers
is 500 m. If the tension in the conductor is 1600 kg, find the minimum
clearance of the conductor and water and clearance mid-way between the
supports. Weight of conductor is 1·5 kg/m. Bases of the towers can be
considered to be at water level.

Sag and tension

  • 1. SAG AND TENSION BY – KAPIL SHRIVASTAVA
  • 2. DEFINATION SAG:-The difference in level between points of supports and the lowest point on the conductor is called sag.`
  • 3. WHY SAG PROVISION IS MANDATORY Sag is mandatory in transmission line conductor suspension. The conductors are attached between two supports with perfect value of sag. It is because of providing safety of the conductor from not to be subjected to excessive tension. In order to permit safe tension in the conductor, conductors are not fully stretched; rather they are allowed to have sag.
  • 4. SOME IMPORTANT POINTS  When same leveled two supports hold the conductor, bend shape arises in the conductor. Sag is very small with respect to the span of the conductor.  Sag span curve is like parabolic.  The tension in each point of the conductor acts always tangentially.  Again the horizontal component of the tension of conductor is constant throughout conductor length.  The tension at supports is nearly equal to the tension at any point of the conductor.
  • 5. How to Calculate Sag? Sag calculation is classified on two Conditions - A. When supports are at equal levels B. When supports are not at equal levels
  • 11. WHEN SUPPORTS ARE AT EQUAL LEVELS l = Length of span w = Weight per unit length of conductor T = Tension in the conductor. Consider a point p on the conductor. •Taking the lowest point o as the origin, let the co-ordinates of point p be x and y. •Assuming that the curvature is so small that curved length is equal to its horizontal projection (i.E., Op = x),
  • 12. Two forces acting on the portion OP of the conductor are – (a) The weight wx of conductor acting at a distance x/2 from O. (b) The tension T acting at O.
  • 13. WHEN SUPPORTS ARE NOT AT EQUAL LEVELS  In hilly areas, we generally come across conductors suspended between supports at unequal levels. conductor suspended between two supports A and B which are at different levels. The lowest point on the conductor is O. l = Span length h = Difference in levels between two supports x1 = Distance of support at lower level (i.e., A) from O x2 = Distance of support at higher level (i.e. B) from O T = Tension in the conductor
  • 14. NOTE
  • 15. EFFECT OF WIND AND ICE LOADING In actual practice, a conductor may have ice coating and simultaneously subjected to wind pressure. The weight of ice acts vertically downwards i.e., in the same direction as the weight of conductor. The force due to the wind is assumed to act horizontally i.e., at right angle to the projected surface of the conductor. Hence, the total force on the conductor is the vector sum of horizontal and vertical forces.

NUMERICALS Q:1 A 132 kV transmission line has the following data : Wt. of conductor = 680 kg/km ; Length of span = 260 m Ultimate strength = 3100 kg ; Safety factor = 2 Calculate the height above ground at which the conductor should be supported. Ground clearance required is 10 meters. Q:2 A transmission line has a span of 150 m between level supports. The conductor has a cross-sectional area of 2 cm2. The tension in the conductor is 2000 kg. If the specific gravity of the conductor material is 9·9 gm/cm3 and wind pressure is 1·5 kg/m length, calculate the sag. What is the vertical sag? Q:3 The towers of height 30 m and 90 m respectively support a transmission line conductor at water crossing. The horizontal distance between the towers is 500 m. If the tension in the conductor is 1600 kg, find the minimum clearance of the conductor and water and clearance mid-way between the supports. Weight of conductor is 1·5 kg/m. Bases of the towers can be considered to be at water level.
