Summary of an IEEE Guide for Power-Line Carrier Applications

The document described in this summary provides general guidance covering the use of power-line carrier n North America. The goal of the Guide is to provide application information to users of carrier equipment as applied to power transmission lines. Information related to the expanding usage of carrier on distribution lines is not specifically covered; however, brief descriptions are given of carrier applied over media other than direct coupling to overhead power lines. These include power cables, intrabundle channels, and insulated shield wires.
