Abstract From the Canadian patent

In a method, computer program and system for determining an operational limit of a power transmission line, time-stamped current phasor information and voltage phasor information for a first end and a second end of the line are determined, an ohmic resistance of the line is computed from the phasor information, and an average line temperature is computed from the ohmic resistance. This allows to determine the average line temperature without dedicated temperature sensors. The average line temperature represents the actual average temperature and is largely independent of assumptions regarding line parameters.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed December 11, 2002 and granted March 13, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 11, 2022.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by December 11, 2024.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
