Abstract

This paper presents two insulation solutions for an AC to DC power transmission line conversion. The purpose is to maximise active power of both solutions, by maximising voltage. The method includes High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) scheme selection, insulation dimensioning for HVDC energisation in polluted environments and switching surge overvoltage clearance calculation. The intended readers are HVDC Outdoor Insulation Scientists and Engineers, and Transmission System Operators (TSOs), looking for economically viable solutions to increase the power transfer capability of the power system. They will benefit by learning a proposed comprehensive framework method to convert an AC transmission line to DC. This method has been implemented for the case study of a 132 kV line to line double AC circuit supported by a typical transmission tower. The theoretical and simulation results show in detail that a substantial increase of the power transfer capability of the line may be achieved. However, further investigation is needed.
