1283-2004
IEEE Guide for Determining the Effects of High Temperature Operation on Conductors, Connectors, and Accessories
The purpose of this guide is to provide general recommendations for consideration when designing new overhead transmission lines that will be operated at high temperatures. It may also evaluate existing transmission lines for operation at higher temperatures. Although this guide is intended for overhead transmission lines, most of the discussion will also be applicable to distribution lines.
1307-2004
IEEE Standard for Fall Protection for Utility Work
General recommendations for fall protection and worker protection are provided. Sufficient details of the methods, equipment, and training requirements necessary to provide minimal risk procedures for personnel working at elevated worksites are presented.
1531-2003
IEEE Guide for Application and Specification of Harmonic Filters
Guidelines for specification of components, protection, and control of harmonic filters are provided. This guide applies to the use of 50 Hz and 60 Hz passive shunt power harmonic filters on low- and medium-voltage electric power systems. This document is the first guide specifically created for harmonic filters, although standards do presently exist for most of the components that are used in a filter. Applications including industrial low-voltage facilities, utility medium-voltage systems, and arc furnace installations are covered.
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
1441-2004
IEEE Guide for Inspection of Overhead Transmission Line Construction
Withdrawn January 2012. This guide covers various approaches to good inspection practices for the construction of overhead transmission lines. Inspection responsibilities and reporting as well as inspection of various overhead transmission line components are discussed. The guide is intended to be used as a reference for those involved in the ownership, design, and construction of overhead transmission lines.
1572-2004
IEEE Guide for Application of Composite Line Post Insulators
An application guide for non-ceramic line posts is being drafted. The guide will include handling recommendations, interpretation of manufacturer ratings, contamination considerations, and equivalency with porcelain. Project purpose: Users of non-ceramic line posts have questions regarding the use of the products which are not answered due to the lack of any official standard.
430-1986
IEEE Standard Procedures for the Measurement of Radio Noise from Overhead Power Lines and Substations
Uniform procedures are established for the measurement of radio noise generated by corona from overhead power lines with meters that conform to ANSI C63.2-1980. The measurement procedures are also valid for other power-line noise sources such as gaps and harmonics; however, most of the precautionary information, analys is, and data plotting techniques were written and developed primarily for corona discharges. The procedures are not valid for measuring transient radio noise sources that occur during breaker or disconnect switching operations. Procedures are suggested for measurements in and near substations. This standard is applicable to both AC and DC transmission lines and substations.
987-2001
IEEE Guide for Application of Composite Insulators
A guide to the application of composite insulators to overhead transmission and distribution lines is provided. It is based on utility field experience, results of research laboratory tests, and manufacturers 'recommendations. The guide deals with composite insulators, which include a core, weather sheds, and metal end fittings. The core consists of resin and axially-aligned glass fibers. The weather sheds are of polymeric materials.
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
1025-1993
IEEE Guide to the Assembly and Erection of Concrete Pole Structures
Reaffirmed 2012. Good practice that will improve the ability to assemble and erect self-supporting and guyed concrete pole structures for overhead transmission lines is presented. Construction aspects after foundation installation and up to the conductor stringing operation are covered. Some aspects of construction related to other materials use in concrete pole structures are covered, but the treatment is not complete. The guide is intended to be used as a reference source for parties involved in the ownership, design, and construction of transmission structures
1124-2003
IEEE Guide for Analysis and Definition of DC Side Harmonic Performance of HVDC Transmission Systems
Guidelines are provided for evaluating and mitigating harmonic induction effects from high-voltage direct current (HVDC) lines on the adjacent telephone communication lines. Specifically, this guide presents methodology and approach for a) Determining the number of wireline communication circuits that will be affected by unacceptable interference and cost-effective remedial measures; and b) Computing interference levels that would result with various practical dc filter/smoothing reactor designs and the costs of these filters.
1217-2001

IEEE Guide on Conductor Self-Damping Measurements
Reaffirmed September 2007. Methods for measuring the inherent vibration damping characteristics of overhead conductors are presented. The intent is to obtain information in a compatible and consistent form that will provide a reliable basis for studying the vibration and damping of conductors in the future, and for comparing data of various investigators. The methods and procedures recommended are not intended for quality-control test purposes.
