Abstract

In this paper, we study the possibility of increasing the accuracy of calculating load losses of electricity in the wires of overhead power transmission lines with a voltage of 35–220 kV. In “traditional” calculations, some factors that determine the accuracy of loss determination are not taken into consideration. One of them is the effect of weather conditions. The need to take into account meteorological factors are noted in the normative documents. However, existing methods are complex, computationally voluminous, and require comprehensive weather information. Therefore, they cannot be used for engineering calculations. Here, we estimate the values ​​of the correction coefficients allowing to take into account the weather conditions in the calculations and thereby reduce the error in determining the load loss of electricity in the wires of overhead power lines at a minimal amount of source data.
