Research on Helicopter Live-Line Work by Platform Method on 1000 kV UHV AC Transmission Lines

摘要

This paper focuses on the security condition of line worker during the implementation of helicopter live-line work by platform method on 1000 kV ultrahigh voltage (UHV) transmission lines. First, a model of helicopter live-line work is presented, and the electric field distribution of line worker when performing live-line work on 1000 kV UHV transmission lines is analyzed. Then, the capacitances between helicopter live-line work platform, transmission lines, and ground are obtained by energy method, and an equivalent circuit model is presented to analyze the current characteristic of bonding procedure. At the end of this paper, an experiment of helicopter live-line work is performed, the electric field distributions of line worker and the discharge current are measured and compared with simulation results, which will be used to judge the security condition of line worker and the feasibility of helicopter live-line work by platform method on 1000 kV UHV transmission lines.
