Description:

Methodology for estimating the life of power line conductor - connector systems operating at high temperatures (MELCOT) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. This technology predicts the service life of conductor-connect systems. The splices connecting the conductor lines are literally the weak links in the transmission systems. With this new method of investigating performance and integrity of the power line system, researchers can develop more durable and reliable systems for the electric power grid. Power grid operators can maintain power flow and prevent potential grid failures, and effectively reroute power distribution during emergency or natural disasters.
