General 1.1 RO.1 General (ncpt) This standard EN 50341-2-24 (Part 2-24) gives the requirements for design and construction of overhead electrical lines with nominal voltages exceeding A.C. 1 kV operating at 50 Hz frequency. This Part 2-24 applies to new overhead electrical lines, as well as in the following cases: - the extension of existing overhead electrical lines; - the deviation of some portions of the existing overhead electrical lines in accordance with the provisions of technical regulations in force issued by the National Energy Regulatory Authority (see article 39 of ANRE Order 25/2016); - new supports to be used for the replacement and/or relocation of existing supports. This Part 2-24 is not applicable for the existing overhead electrical lines unless specifically required by Project Specification. The overhead electrical lines, that are in different stages of design or construction, can be completed in conformity with the standards in force at the beginning of project. For the application of this standard for specific requirements relating to modernization, increasing safety and transport capacity of existing overhead electrical lines, reference shall be specified in the Project Specification. At the same time, the correlation between relevant regulations and associated standards shall be established in the Project Specifications. The extension of existing electrical lines is considered as new overhead electrical lines, except the junction points that shall be detailed in the Project Specifications. 1.2 Field of application 1.2 RO.1 Overhead electrical lines having uninsulated, pre-insulated and insulated conductors (ncpt) This Part 2-24 is applicable for the design and construction of overhead electrical lines with uninsulated, pre-insulated and insulated conductors where the internal and external clearances can be smaller than those specified in Part 1 (SR EN 50341-1:2013).
