It will reveal the basic concepts involved in the behavior of overhead conductors that are strung up under tension between structures and operated under a range of electrical loading conditions. Also describ ed are the influences on conductor behavior by external forces such as ice accumulation\, hurricane winds\, solar heating\, and varying ambient air temperatures.\n\nWhile designing an overhead line is quite beyond the scop e of this presentation\, it provides the basic principles of conductor beh avior that a line designer needs to understand in order to properly constr uct the sag & tension charts for an overhead line.\n\nJust for fun\, it wi ll answer a few historical questions\, like:\n\nWho built the first overhe ad electrical line in America?\n\nWhere and when was the first overhead po wer line built?\n\nWhen and where was the first commercial 220 kV transmis sion line built in the USA?\n\nRegister now for the opportunity to learn a bout a subject whose somewhat obscure knowledge has evolved for more than 100 years.\n\nBring your questions for an interactive presentation and dis cussion.\n\nREGISTRATION REQUIRED FROM THIS PAGE -- WEBEX LOG-IN LINK EMAI LED "DAY OF" -- SCROLL DOWN FOR AGENDA & PDH DETAILS\n\nIF YOU SEE "REGIST RATION FULL"\, CONTACT HOST (link below) TO BE PLACED ON THE WAITING LIST. \n\nSpeaker(s): Joe Renowden\, \n\nAgenda: \nTuesday\, May 17th\; Everyone Welcome\; Pre-Registration Required\; No Fees.\n\nAttendance is limited. IEEE Member Early Registration 2-Week Period begins April 8th. Member numb er is required.\n\nNon-Member/Guest Registration begins April 22nd\; non-m embers/guests registering prior to April 22nd will receive an auto-confirm ation\, but your seat will not be reserved/processed until April 22nd. No need to register again. Thanks for your interest in IEEE!\n\nRegistration closes Monday\, May 16th\, 11:59 PM Eastern.\n\nIf you find it necessary t o cancel\, please send a message to above Host: Lehigh Valley Section Chap ter. No-Shows are unfair to others we would turn away if class is full. Th ank you.\n\nWebEx will open early by 3:30 PM. The log-in link & dial-in nu mbers will be e-mailed "day of"\, only to those who have pre-registered. A ttendance will be recorded electronically. Phone-in callers\, from any vin tage phone\, are also welcome with self-identification or be expelled.\n\n WebEx attendance is FREE\; no WebEx account needed.\n\nJoin the WebEx earl y to test & adjust your settings. Networking for everyone begins at 4 PM.\ n\nPresentation will start promptly at 4:30 PM Eastern.\n\nAttendees may s peak and ask questions. This will be an interactive meeting\, NOT a one-wa y lecture. Webcam use is your choice.\n\nYour e-mail address\, as register ed\, is our only method of communication and will be used for issuing the WebEx log-in link & phone dial-in number\, slides when available\, PDH\, a nd any program change/cancellation messages.\n\nCertificate for 2 PDH is a vailable only upon advance request. IEEE membership is required for a PDH certificate. You must include your active IEEE membership number. Certific ates in pdf format will be issued post-meeting\, when volunteers can prepa re them\, to those who (a) requested one in advance and (b) attended the e ntire meeting.\n\nBldg: None - Webex\, .\, Allentown\, Pennsylvania\, Unit ed States\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/311102 LOCATION:Bldg: None - Webex\, .\, Allentown\, Pennsylvania\, United States\ , Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/311102 ORGANIZER:gsmullin@gmail.com SEQUENCE:17 SUMMARY:Overhead Power Lines Conductor Sag & Tension\, The Fundamentals URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/311102 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">This prese ntation is an introduction to the field of conductor Sag &amp\; Tension.&n bsp\; It will reveal the basic concepts involved in the behavior of overhe ad conductors that are strung up under tension between structures and oper ated under a range of electrical loading conditions.&nbsp\; Also described are the influences on conductor behavior by external forces such as ice a ccumulation\, hurricane winds\, solar heating\, and varying ambient air te mperatures.&nbsp\;</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">While de signing an overhead line is quite beyond the scope of this presentation\, it provides the basic principles of conductor behavior that a line designe r needs to understand in order to properly construct the sag &amp\; tensio n charts for an overhead line.&nbsp\;</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-siz e: 12pt\;">Just for fun\, it will answer a few historical questions\, like :</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">Who built the first overh ead electrical line in America?</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12p t\;">Where and when was the first overhead power line built?</span></p>\n< p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">When and where was the first commercial 220 kV transmission line built in the USA?</span></p>\n<p><span style="fon t-size: 12pt\;">Register now for the opportunity to learn about a subject whose somewhat obscure knowledge has evolved for more than 100 years.</spa n></p>\n<p style="font-weight: 400\;"><span style="font-size: 12pt\; color : #000000\;"> Bring your questions for an interactive presentation and dis cussion.</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;"><span style="color : #ff0000\;"><span style="text-decoration: underline\;">REGISTRATION REQUI RED FROM THIS PAGE -- WEBEX LOG-IN LINK EMAILED "DAY OF" -- SCROLL DOWN FO R AGENDA &amp\; PDH DETAILS</span></span></span></p>\n<p><span style="font -size: 12pt\; color: #000000\;"><span style="text-decoration: underline\;" >IF YOU SEE "REGISTRATION FULL"\, CONTACT HOST (link below) TO BE PLACED O N THE WAITING LIST.</span></span></p><br /><br />Agenda: <br /><p><span st yle="color: #000000\;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline\;"> <span style="font-size: 12pt\;">Tuesday\, May 17th\;&nbsp\; &nbsp\;Everyon e Welcome\;&nbsp\; &nbsp\;Pre-Registration Required\;&nbsp\; &nbsp\;No Fee s.</span></span></strong></span></p>\n<p><span style="color: #000000\;"><s trong><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">Attendance is limited.&nbsp\; </span ></strong></span><span style="font-size: 12pt\; color: #000000\;"><strong> IEEE Member Early Registration 2-Week Period begins April 8th.&nbsp\; Memb er number is required.</strong></span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12p t\; color: #000000\;"><strong>Non-Member/Guest Registration begins April 2 2nd</strong>\; non-members/guests registering prior to April 22nd will rec eive an auto-confirmation\, but your seat will not be reserved/processed u ntil April 22nd.&nbsp\; No need to register again. &nbsp\;Thanks for your interest in IEEE!</span></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\; color: #00 0000\;">Registration close</span><span style="font-size: 12pt\; color: #00 0000\;">s Monday\, May 16th\, 11:59 PM Eastern.</span></p>\n<p><span style ="font-size: 12pt\;">If you find it necessary to cancel\, please send a me ssage to above Host: Lehigh Valley Section Chapter.&nbsp\; No-Shows are un fair to others we would turn away if class is full.&nbsp\; Thank you.</spa n></p>\n<p><span style="font-size: 12pt\;">WebEx will open early by 3:30 P M.
