; ; ;
Project EHV was operated successfully and almost continuously at the 500-kV level for the first year of tests starting in December 1960; operation is continuing. A maximum voltage of 770 kV was attained. Corona loss and radio influence performance were very satisfactory. Corona loss of the 500-kV operating level was negligible during fair weather. Correlation has been established between values of corona loss, radio influence, and audible sound measured simultaneously.
