Popis: This paper presents a computational tool intended to calculate and minimize the electric fields at ground level of high surge impedance loading transmission lines (TLs). This type of TL achieves higher power transmission rates utilizing optimized configuration for the phase conductors. This method is advantageous over other actions taken by the utility company, such as increasing the maximum operation temperature of the line, increasing the size of the conductors, or the utilization of multiple conductors per phase. In this paper, an enhanced deep-cut ellipsoidal method is applied to find a new optimized configuration for the phase conductors. The new proposed configuration results in reduced profiles of electric fields. Two different TLs are analyzed and optimized.
