Abstract: Phase balancing techniques for power transmission systems are disclosed. In one embodiment, a phase balancing protocol (240) includes executing a first phase balancing protocol (350) in relation to a first power transmission section (400a). A second phase balancing protocol (370) may be executed if the first phase balancing protocol (350) is unable to provide a phase balanced condition. The first phase balancing protocol (350) may utilize a first ordering sequence (364) to rank the current flow on the power lines (16) of the first power transmission section (400a), while the second phase balancing protocol (370) may utilize a second ordering sequence (384) to rank the current flow on the power lines (16) of the first power transmission section (400a). The order sequences (364, 384) are opposite of each other—one ranks the current flows from high-to-low, and the other ranks the current flow from low-to-high.
