Popis: An analysis procedure and computer program are described for the static analysis of electric transmission lines for unbalanced longitudinal loads due to broken wires or differential ice. The nonlinearily of the wires and suspension insulators are considered. A modified Newton-Raphson iteration procedure is used. The input to the program consists of: the physical properties of the transmission line; the ice loading and the location of broken wires. The output consists of the wire tensions and the displacements in the final equilibrium position. The program was developed under a research project funded by the Electric Power Research Institute.
