Tension in Transmission Line Calculator

    Tension in Transmission Line Calculator

    Estimate the maximum tension in a transmission line using:
    \[ T = \sqrt{\left(\frac{wL^2}{8S}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{wL}{2}\right)^2} \]

    * Enter weight per unit length (N/m), span (m), and sag (m) (with sag less than span).

    Step 1: Enter Parameters

    Example: 1 N/m

    Example: 100 m

    Example: 5 m

    Formula: \( T = \sqrt{\left(\frac{wL^2}{8S}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{wL}{2}\right)^2} \)
