Revolutionizing Grids with High Temperature, Low Sag Conductors

Training Seminar Overview

Transmission grids are critical to modern energy infrastructure, yet they face increasing demands for efficiency, reliability, and adaptability. Traditional conductors are being pushed to their limits, prompting engineers and utilities to explore innovative solutions. High Temperature, Low Sag (HTLS) conductors present a revolutionary approach to overcoming these challenges, but they also raise important questions: How do HTLS conductors differ from conventional ones? What are the implications for structure loading and design? Can the higher cost of HTLS conductors be justified by their performance benefits?

Watch this on-demand webinar for in-depth answers to these questions and more, providing clear guidance on how HTLS conductors can enhance the future of power transmission.
