overhead lines spanned over substations Explanation: Der Platzbedarf von gasisolierten Schaltanlagen beträgt ca. 1/10 dessen von Freiluftschaltanlagen, wodurch diese Anlagen in Hallen untergebracht werden können. Dafür sind Kosten und Wartungsaufwand höher als bei Freiluftschaltanlagen, weshalb gasisolierte Anlagen vor allem in dicht bebauten städtischen Gebieten mit geringem Platzangebot Anwendung finden. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schaltanlage Elements of a substation A: Primary power lines' side B: Secondary power lines' side 1.

overtensioning Explanation: This is overtensioning I think. You can safely ignore the /Anlagen/ part of the word. This is typical German nomenclature redundancy. The dead-end tower or dead-end portal (Freileitungs-Abspannportal) are placed in intervals to support the weight of the cables. The dead-end portal has strain insulators to carry the mechanical pull of the conductors/cables. If there is a great distance to cover like a body of water, for example, the right combination/number of towers with the right construction will ensure that there is no system failure: the cables can come into contact with each other when windy, the cables might sag over time because of mechanical failure of components. You text states that if the dead-end tower is not in the immediate vicinity of some field (Feld - does your text define what this field is?), overtensioning occurs. This happens when the span is too wide causing too much of a mechanical dynamic load (downwards, swinging). A span that is too wide is present when the distance between successive towers is not optimal. Just a start. Can look for references tomorrow. Read about strain insulators. That will point you in the right direction. |

overvoltage installation Explanation: definition from the International Electrotechnical Vocabulary (IEV 604-03-09); available on Electropedia Various types of overvoltage An overvoltage is a voltage pulse or wave which is superimposed on the rated voltage of the network. |

Reference: span over? Reference information: Neither 'span over' or 'overspan' sounds like native English. At least in American English we would speak of stringing overhead lines. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 3 hrs (2018-04-30 03:44:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- US English …as the grounded conductors are installed or strung over existing energized conductors, the grounded conductors are supported above the energized conductors. https://patents.google.com/patent/US20150263501 UK English - When all the towers in a particular section have been erected, we will begin to put the electricity wires in place. This is called ‘stringing’. Where conductors are to be strung over roads, railways or other smaller power lines, netted scaffolding will be erected to make sure this can be done safely and with minimum disruption. https://www.ssen-transmission.co.uk/media/1076/1242_beaulyde... |
