Synopsis

The planning of overhead power transmission lines involves consideration of many environmental, legal and physical issues. This book examines the major constraints facing the electricity supply industry when planning new power lines, and the different ways in which they can affect the choice of route. Matters that have a bearing on this choice, including, for example, urban and other development, airfield safeguarding and radio station protection, are examined and the problems for each type are defined. The book also discusses fully the economic aspects. Comparison is made with underground cables, and the book ends with a summary of the relevant legal framework.
