ABSTRACT:
In order to solve the resource shortage problem of the power transmission corridors, a new design of power
transmission line is necessaryDouble circuits and access other lines with single type of the 110STJ is a new
type tower that used in China for the first time. The tower with height call 24m, height 38.4m and weight 18.3t,
was subjected to tests under nine operation conditions(including 90 degree of wind, broken wire, ice-covering
and so on) based on the standard DL/T899 -2012 Loading Tests on Tower and Pole Structures of Overhead
Line. The Experiments show that the displacements of tower 110STJ meet the relevant standard of deformation,
and the stress of tower 110STJ did not exceed the members carrying capacity respectively. Meanwhile,
compared with the conventional similar general tower, this new type has good economic efficiency and social
benefits. So it can meet the safe and reliable operation of the line, and can be applied widely.
KEY WORDS: transmission lines; double circuits; full-scale test; angle steel tower
0 Introduction
Transmission line (the connecting line between electric power plants and transformer substation) that can
transmit electric energy between the power grid and power between electric system is not only a main artery of
electric power industry but also an important part of the electrical power system.
Connecting the 110kV line of the existing transformer substation to the power line of the new 110kV
transformer substation with type is too common nowadays. In China, the single type of the 110kV line is
usually connected by breaking the existing lines respectively. However, it has many disadvantages, such as:
much more materials of tower, larger area occupation, wider line corridor and so on. While, the way which
access other lines with single type in the same double circuits is not applied so far.
In order to satisfy the need of practical engineering, and act as a guide to the selection of 110kV tower
transmission lines, Economic and Technical Research Institute of Shanxi Electric Power Corporation designs the
double circuits of the 110STJ tower accessing other lines with single type on the basis of the general design,
which can also meet the idea to reduce the earth occupation, reduce the line corridor and do good to the climate.
Then, China Electric Power Research Institute has performed full-scale experimental research for the tower to
verify the question of whether force distribution and load characteristic of the tower is in accordance with the
design calculation.
This paper aims to introduce the process of the design and the experiment, and then analyzes experimental
result.
1 Design profile of 110STJ tower
Double circuits and access other lines with single type of the 110STJ new type tower is firstly used in the
110kV power transmission and transformation project of Gujiao city, Shanxi Province, China. Its safe reliability
along with designing reasonability is a significant milestone. So Economic and Technical Research Institute of
Shanxi Electric Power Corporation makes a comprehensive design analysis and a experiment to verify the
important working conditions of the tower.
1.1 Basic parameters of the tower
110STJ tower is designed according to Technical Code for the Design of Tower and Pole Structures of
Overhead Transmission Line (DL/T 5154-2012), Code for Design of 110kV750kV Overhead Transmission
Line (GB 50545-2010), General Design of 110kV Transmission Line and so on.
Conductor of the tower selects JL/G1A-300/40, and earth wire selects JLB20A-100. Its horizontal span is
400m, and vertical span is 500m, design wind speed is 27m/s, thickness of ice-covering is 10mm, nominal
height is 24m, disconnection longitudinal unbalanced tension of conductor is equal to conductor maximum
tension, disconnection longitudinal unbalanced tension of earth wire is equal to earth wire maximum tension,
nonuniform ice-covering longitudinal unbalanced tension of conductor is equal to 30 percent of conductor
maximum tension, nonuniform ice-covering longitudinal unbalanced tension of earth wire is equal to 40 percent
of earth wire maximum tension. The configuration of 110STJ tower as shown in Figure 1.

Table 2 shows 110STJ tower has the following advantages: narrow line corridors, less area occupation, less
damage to the trees, less land resources and space resources west, and in harmony with the surrounding
environment. At the same time, it also shows that double circuits and access other lines with single type of the
110STJ new type tower is especially suitable for the district which is complex terrain and lacks of land
resources.

According to the control condition of the stress measuring point, wind conditions controls main material of
the tower body, while the earth wire broken conditions controls tower body inclined material and cross arm
main material. Since the materials of the 110SJT testing tower havent exceed the allowable stress of
corresponding specifications, it was in safe state under various conditions.
4 Conclusions and suggestions
(1) After 9 conditions of full-scale test, the main material and inclined material of the 110STJ testing tower
are both normal, that means the structure is reasonable. Thus, the testing tower has passed the test according to
the relevant codes.
(2) Based on the experimental data, the biggest displacement and stress meet the demand of the relevant
codes.
(3) The success of the 110STJ full-scale test shows that the structure of the 110JST tower is feasible, so it can
meet the safe and reliable operation of the transmission line.
(4) The double circuits and access other lines with single type of the 110STJ new type tower has good social
and economic benefits, and it is also especially suitable for the district which is complex terrain and lacks of
land resources.
