Annotation: The article is devoted to the principles of designing the normative document of the Ministry of Fuel and Energy of Ukraine “Climatic Loads on Overhead Transmission Power Lines Adjusted for Topographical Peculiarities. Determination Methods”. This normative document comprises the basic principles of determining the influence of topographic peculiarities on icing-wind loads, as described in the document mentioned. The normative document also takes onto account the experience of the International working group WG16 “Meteorology for Overhead Power Lines” of the Committee B2 “Overhead Lines” of the SIGRE (an International Council on Large Electric Systems), namely the normative document “Guidelines for Evaluating Special Topographical Effects in Determining Wind Speed for Design of Overhead Lines in Local Terrain”. The international norms and codes, such as Eurocode, the normative documents of the USA , Canada , Japan , Norway , Australia , as well as the principles taken as the principle for new Ukrainian Building codes “Loads and Influences”.

Keywords: overhead power lines, climatic loads, norms and codes, topographical effects.

Pages: 33-43.
