Sag Tension Calculation for Conductors

1. The document calculates sag tension for an overhead conductor under different temperature and wind conditions. 2. Under initial conditions of 32°C temperature and no wind, the initial tension is calculated as 2268 kg with a sag of 6.02 meters. 3. Under final conditions of 32°C temperature and no wind, the final tension and sag remain the same at 2268 kg and 6.02 meters respectively.
