Summary

This Guide provides information on the operation of conventional conductor systems at temperatures higher than traditional ratings of 75°C continuous operation and 100°C emergency for short excursions to allow for continued operation during contingencies. Operating conductor systems above 100°C allows for higher current flow over existing lines, but has short and long term consequences that must be considered for the safe operation of the line.
