Abstract :
The paper describes a monitoring system for the evaluation of the low sag behavior of the overhead conductors in operating lines. The monitoring system measures the conductor tension and temperature and it also measures the wind speed to evaluate the load in the conductor due to wind. This system includes a methodology for the analysis of the measured data and the comparison of these data with the theoretical values obtained by mechanical calculation.
