About This Item
IEEE P1870/D7, Oct 2018 is an IEEE-approved draft guide for the parameter measurement of AC transmission lines. It focuses on how key electrical characteristics are measured and interpreted for high-voltage power systems, helping engineers work with more consistent data in planning, analysis, and testing. For transmission-line studies, measurement quality matters because it affects performance evaluation, system modeling, and the reliability of design decisions.
About IEEE P1870/D7, Oct 2018
This technical document addresses parameter measurement methods for AC transmission lines, with attention to the kinds of electrical quantities used in power-system engineering. As a draft guide, IEEE P1870/D7, Oct 2018 is intended to support a common approach to obtaining and comparing line parameters, which can be important when different teams, labs, or utilities need results that are practical and repeatable. Its scope aligns with power, energy, and related electrical systems work.
Where is IEEE P1870/D7, Oct 2018 used?
IEEE P1870/D7, Oct 2018 is most relevant in transmission-line studies, utility engineering workflows, and laboratory or field measurement programs for AC power networks. It may be used when assessing line characteristics for overhead transmission corridors, substation-connected systems, or network models that depend on measured parameters.
