Abstract: A high-voltage overhead electric transmission line extends from a first electrical substation to a second electrical substation and includes at least one “T” junction that forms a joint with three sections A first section and a second section allow connection between the first and the second electrical substations. A third section allows connection to the high-voltage overhead electric transmission line of a user or a third electrical substation or primary substation. The at least one “T” junction has a first switchgear unit configured to allow grid reconfigurations and installed on the first section, and a second switchgear unit configured to allow grid reconfigurations and installed on the second section. Each switchgear unit has a plurality of switchgear unit poles. Each switchgear unit pole is associated with a respective phase of the high-voltage overhead electric transmission line and has a line circuit breaker and at least one line disconnector.

Abstract: A tower for a high-voltage overhead electric transmission line has a predetermined shape defining an internal volume of the tower, and carries a first tension side of a first line section and a second tension side of a second line section. The first and second tension sides have respective pluralities of first and second tension terminals, each associated with a respective phase of the high-voltage overhead electric transmission line. The tower supports a switchgear unit connected at a first end to the first line section and at a second end to the second line section and configured to modify grid configuration, interrupting and restoring electrical continuity in pre-established points, to interrupt nominal and fault currents, and to carry out safety operations. The switchgear unit has a plurality of switchgear unit poles, each associated with a respective phase of the high-voltage overhead electric transmission line and including a line circuit breaker and at least one line disconnector.

Abstract: The invention relates to a grounding system for a tower of an overhead power line, wherein said tower is anchored to the ground by means of one or more anchorage structures (1) at least partially buried.

Abstract: A lattice tower for high-voltage overhead transmission lines having a lattice structure is provided that includes: a base anchored to the ground; a top portion designed for anchoring first and second conductors of a high-voltage overhead transmission line; and a body which extends between the base and the top portion. The lattice tower includes a grid high-voltage electric switching substation that includes: GIS-technology-based switchgear equipment arranged within the base of the lattice structure; a first loop-in loop-out feeder connection configured to connect the first conductors of the high-voltage overhead transmission line to the GIS-technology-based switchgear equipment; a second loop-in loop-out feeder connection configured to connect the second conductors of the high-voltage overhead transmission line to the GIS-technology-based switchgear equipment; and a protection, command and control system arranged within the lattice structure, or in proximity to the base of said lattice structure.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method (1) to detect deformations of, and/or damages to, structures permanently arranged on the earth's surface.
