Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6106573· OSTI ID:6106573

The Department of Energy, Division of Electric Energy Systems, initiated a research program in 1977 at the High Voltage Transmission Research Center to study the electrical environment associated with high voltage direct current (HVDC) overhead power transmission lines. The work described in this report was performed at the High Voltage Transmission Research Center (HVTRC) in Lenox, Massachusetts, during the period 1984--1988, using test facilities and instrumentation developed on behalf of the Department of Energy during the present phase of this research and during the previous phase of the research. 213 figs., 22 tabs.
