About This Item
IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013 is an IEEE approved draft corrigendum for the current-temperature relationship of bare overhead conductors. It focuses on refining how conductor current ratings are linked to operating temperature, which is important for power-system planning, thermal performance assessment, and safe line operation. By addressing this specific calculation method, the document helps engineers apply more consistent assumptions when evaluating overhead conductor behavior in energy and industrial applications.
What is IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013?
This technical document is a corrigendum to an approved draft standard associated with bare overhead conductors. Its role is to correct or clarify the method used to calculate the current-temperature relationship, a key factor in determining how much current a conductor can carry without exceeding thermal limits. IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013 is therefore relevant to thermal rating work, conductor performance analysis, and engineering tasks where temperature rise must be understood in a controlled and repeatable way.
Where is IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013 used?
IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013 is typically used in transmission and distribution engineering, line rating studies, and the evaluation of bare overhead conductors in power networks. It may also support design reviews, operational planning, and asset assessments where conductor temperature affects capacity or reliability. In practice, it is useful for engineers working with overhead line components, system loading limits, and related calculations in utilities and industrial power applications.
Why is IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013 important?
This standard matters because current-temperature calculations directly affect safety, capacity, and operating limits for overhead conductors. Using a consistent corrigendum helps reduce ambiguity in engineering studies and supports better comparison of design results, test data, and operating assumptions. IEEE P738-2012_Cor 1-2013/D2, August 2013 can also aid compliance efforts and procurement decisions by giving teams a clearer basis for thermal performance evaluation and risk control.
