Transmission line structures with Fiber Reinforced Polymer ( FRP) composite
For a long time materials such as wood, steel and concrete, were used for transmission line structures. Advancement in material science and demand for solutions in the aerospace and maritime industries led to the development of new high-tech materials. Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites (FRP) are one class of these emerging materials, and their use in transmission line structures bring many potential advantages, such as long service life, resistance to corrosion, light weight, high specific strength, high dielectric strength, environmental friendliness. The Technical Brochure provides information on the properties of these materials and their manufacturing technology, investigates in details their possible use in transmission line structures, and concludes that FRP structures are cost-effective alternatives to traditional solutions. It is therefore a reference document to be recommended to transmission line professionals.
