Data

Description

Phase no.

Phase number. 0=ground wire on zero potential (eliminated). For lightning studies sky-wires should be treated as separate phase conductors.

RESIS

Conductor resistance at DC (with skin effect) or at Freq. Init. (no skin effect)

REACT

The frequency independent reactance for one unit spacing (meter/foot). Only available with no skin effect.

Rout

Outer radius (cm or inch) of one conductor

Rin

Inner radius of one conductor. Only available with skin effect.

Horiz

Horizontal distance (m or foot) from the center of bundle to a user selectable reference line.

VTower

Vertical bundle height at tower (m or foot).

VMid

Vertical bundle height at mid-span (m or foot). The height h= 2/3* VMid + 1/#*VTower is used in the calculations.

If Auto bundling checked:

Separ

Distance between conductors in a bundle (cm or inch)

Alpha

Angular position of one of the conductors in a bundle, measured counter-clockwise from the horizontal line.

NB

Number of conductors in a bundle.
