1. INTRODUCTION
The peak demand of KEPCO in 1994 was 26,696 MW, whereas the
peak demand in 1987 was 11,ooO MW. According to load forecast in
Korea the maximum peak demand in 2001 will reach 38,ooO MW.
Recently the load demand increase rate is about 10%.
Due to the geographical and social condition, the distance between
generating sites and Ioad centers is very long, 150-200 km and the total
transferred power to Seoul will reach 10,ooO M W in 2010. The total 345
kV line length is about 5,000 Ckm and the capacity of the 345kV/154kV
step down hansformer is 24,172 MVA.
Therefore KEPCO feels the necessity of 765kV transmission line to
carry bulk power from generation sites to load center, Seoul. Since 1984,
KEPRI has been studying the design of a 765kV double-circuit
bansmission line considering rugged mountainous area and the difficulty
to get the right of way.
For 765kV transmission line, it is believed that the AN will dominate
the conductor selection [1,2,31 Considering the govemment environmental
noise regulation is 50 dB(A) in the residential area, KEPRI investigated
several candidate conductor bundles using BPA Corona and Field Effects
computer program. To select the optimum conductor bundle, a 6mx6mX
20m corona cage was conslructed in 1986. By the electric field
calrullrtion anrilYhl# ba\H,utl on uls chwgs simulation method, the cmss
section of the caueC41 was determined as 6mX6m on the grounds that It

and transposxtion tower whose weight is 195 ton and the height is 76
m. The second and t h i i suspension tower is 79 m. The bus is
overhead line bus supported by self-supporting structures.
Radio Interference : Three loop antennas are installed at 3m, 18m and
188 m from the outmost phase
They are called RI, Rz and R3 respectively.
TV Interference
We have charged the test line from April 1993, but there were some
troubles in O L E transformer and data acsuisition system. So the test
line has been normally operated since August 1993.
We analyzed the data for 14 months ('93 Aug -'94 October) and
compared with the predicted value by BPA program and the measured
value of corona cage test. Table 1. shows the number of effective data
and its effective data acquisition rate in this period. Only effective data
were used in the statistical analysis.

We did not attach shield rings in the double tension insulator string
of the dead-end tower and bus-supporting towers at the construction
stage. So there were some corona discharges in these tension insulator
strings and hardwares. But after installing specially designed shield
rings, the discharges were disappeared. We installed three loop antennas
which are made by CISPR 16, ANSI C63.2-1980. The height of antenna
is 2m. The effective data of RI in Rz antenna which is located at 18m
from outmost phase, satisfy following conditions.
We have known that the measured value of random noise Lso is very
close to the predicted by BPA program and higher than the value of the
corona cage by 4 dB(A). Artiicial rain rate and n a W rain rate are
different to each other, so there is 4 dB(A) difference of Lso between
test line and corona cage. Fig. 4 shows the cumulative distribution of
AN data in foul weather. In this figure 50 % cumulative frequency of
A N 3 is 49.1 &(A).

3.CONCLUSIONS
The following conclusions are drawn from our long-term study using
766 kV full scale test line.
1. The foul weather AN(h0) of the measured is 49.1 dB(A) and is v w
close to the predicted by BPA program.
2. The fair weather R I ( h ) of the measured is 45.7 dB(N/m) and is
greater than the predicted by 2.4 dB(PV/m).
