phase b in Figure 1.49a.
1.7 Nonuniform Conductors
There are a number of papers on nonuniform lines [30–49]. EMC-related
transients or surges in a gas-insulated substation and on a tower involve
nonuniform lines, such as short-line, nonparallel, and vertical conductors.
Pollaczek’s [7], Caron’s [8], and Sunde’s [50] impedance formulas for an over-
head line are well known and have been widely used in the analysis of the
transients mentioned earlier. However, it is not well known that these for-
mulas were derived assuming an innitely long a ...
