Characteristics of wind noise on 765kV Transmission Line and countermeasure against wind noise

765 kV 송전선로의 풍소음 발생특성과 대책연구

KEPCO 765 kV Transmission Lines where seasonal winds intersect to the direction of the transmission line route cause aeolian complaints from residents near the transmission lines due to 1.5 times sub-conductors numbers and about 2 times of tower height comparing 345 kV transmission lines. To decrease the wind noise generation, KEPRI developed two countermeasures. One is to install the Spiral Rod on wired 765 kV Cardinal conductor. The other method is to wire the Low Noise conductor which has salient part on the surface.
