A DLR system applicable to double-circuit transmission lines is designed based on maximum allowable conductor temperature, conductor temperature at limit-dip (sag) margin, and transformer maximum load. The improved performance of the system is reported.en-USThis Item is protected by copyright and/or related rights.
