“…Proceeding from the above-mentioned, it follows that the improvement of the construction of 330 kV overhead transmission lines not only increases their carrying capacity, but also limits the strength of EMF near the overhead transmission line, that leads to the decrease of the eliminated areas for overhead transmission lines. Thus, in the process of overhead transmission lines design, routes of which pass near the residential areas or other places where people remain for a long time (play grounds, gardens) it is expedient to include in the pre-project assessment of the variants the analysis of electromagnetic situation near the route of the overhead transmission line, in particular, consider the strength value of EMF not only on the route of the line, but also at a distance of more than 20 m from the projection of the outer conductor, because with the distance from the overhead transmission line, the strength decreases slower, than at small distances, that is why, the given fact requires more accurate calculation [16,17]. For the realization of these tasks the following engineering solutions can be used: decrease of the interphase distances at a result of carrying out measures, aimed at reduction of the calculated overvoltage ratio; transition from the conventional to compact and selfcompensating transmission lines of the increased carrying capacity and reduced ecological impact; usage of the vegetation arrays to provide the ecological safety of the lines.…”
