Cable design based on three-dimensional design technology

Abstract

As the development of power system, more and more transmission line engineering are turning into cable design in city or some built-up areas. Three-dimensional design is a new design method which is more suitable for cable project than traditional CAD 2D design. This paper shows the several work we have made to develop the three-dimensional design and introduces the main design process for the cable three-dimensional design. Finally, a case of hybrid overhead line and cable project is been shown, which shown the advantages of the three-dimensional design for the cable project.
