Description / Abstract:
This guide will provide the industry with a generic
specification, including design and testing, for transmission
modular restoration structure components.
Purpose
The purpose of this guide is to provide the industry with a
generic specification that can be used by companies for acquisition
of transmission modular restoration structure components. This
particular design would then be compatible with the modular
restoration structures presently in use within the utility industry
and allow the highly successful plan of transmission mutual aid to
be greatly enhanced.
The testing prescribed in this standard provides a high level of
confidence between manufacturers and/or suppliers and is intended
to promote competitive acquisition practices within the
industry.
This guide is not intended to be an application guide for
complete assembled emergency restoration structures. However, the
application and capabilities of emergency restoration structures
that utilize the components described in this guide have been well
documented by Goodreid and Magwood [B6],1 Rutty, et al. [B11],
Aristizabal and Cortez [B2], Lopez Tagle, et al. [B8], Pohlman, et
al. [B9] and [B10], Agrawal and Erickson [B1], and Schweiner, et
al. [B11].
