AbstractIn Lithuanian and Polish electric power supply systems, the power transmission lines of 400 kV voltage represent one of the most potential sources of electric and magnetic fields generation. The 400 kV double-circuit overhead power transmission line and its surrounding environment were herby described and simulated through Finite Element Method usingCOMSOL Multiphysicsoftware package. This study includes magnetic and electric field calculations. The study shows that the values of magnetic field strength and electric field strength present in the vicinity of a 400 kV overhead power transmission line tend to exceed limit values established in the Normative. Measurements are suggested to be taken for the purpose of finding maximum values of magnetic and electric field strength. To reduce these values, it is recommended to increase the height of supports, and restrict human personal and economic activities.

Condition monitoring sensors have the responsibility of reducing occupational failures or unscheduled shutdowns especially in power transmission line systems. Existing sensors that are used for condition monitoring are mostly battery-dependent. Powering up these sensors in difficult to access areas where high voltage transmission line usually runs is a challenge because batteries usually have a limited life cycle. Power sources other than batteries such as harvesting from solar energy, magnetic energy, radio frequency energy either produces insufficient energy or not entirely available all the time. Electric Field Energy Harvesting (EFEH) overcomes many of these disadvantages and provides a quality and continuous power source to be used to power up devices especially the monitoring sensors that are used in transmission line monitoring. This paper presents key aspects and drawbacks of six types of energy harvesting methods and a review of existing energy harvesters. The concept of electric field and the usage of EFEH in power transmission line system are explained and a comparison between EFEH with typical energy harvesting methods is discussed. This paper finds that EFEH devices have potential to provide sufficient energy for low powered condition monitoring sensors. Moreover, several improved EFEH approaches are proposed, and future trends are discussed.

Accidents in power transmission lines under icing conditions, in particular, those of cables, cause a great economic damage in Russia. Because of the lack of the possibility to forecast and evaluate reliably the consequences of weather conditions contributing to icing of transmisison line cables, power grid services often have to go to the place of a potential accident relying on guesswork. This leads to considerable losses of time and material resources, while the average recovery time of a damaged high voltage power transmission line is 5–10 days.For the effective prediction and timely prevention of negative consequences of icing of on power line cables, an analytical model that describes the growth of ice on the surface of the electrical cable has been developed. The model is based on a widely applicable analytical model of [1], supplemented with dependence of the growth of ice sleeve on the angle between the wind direction and the cable, and on the electric field strength of the cable.The results obtained using the new analytical model and the [1], model have been compared and show that as the angle between the wind direction and the cable decreases, the intensity of the ice growth decreases significantly. At the same time, the strength of the electric field of the cable affects negligibly the trajectory of water droplets.A conclusion is drawn about insignificance of electrical field strength of the electric cable as a factor of growth of ice deposits. It is stated that the ice thickness value obtained using the developed model can be increased under specific weather conditions and design parameters of transmission lines. The obtained model can be improved by using other physical effects that affect icing of electric cables. Further, the model can be introduced in operation of energy companies to monitor the condition of power transmission lines and to carry out anti-icing activities.
