Sag-Tension Spreadsheet Free


Calculator (Even and Uneven Supports
Elevation)
Posted by admin

In addition to the “even elevation sag-tension spreadsheet”, here is another


excel spreadsheet wherein uneven elevation of supports is integrated. Also,
I added a “macro code” for the ease of the user. In the previous calculator,
the user will have to encounter the “goal seek” command but by using the
“macro” capabilities of excel the user will just click the command button and
focus more on the simulation.

The user should  understand rst the fundamental concepts of sag-tension


so that he can appreciate the equations and the result.

HERE ARE FEATURES OF THE CALCULATOR:

1. The user can add the conductor specifications when it is not available in the
database.
2. The variables names are shown and used in the formula. This advanced excel
feature, allows the user to easily pinpoint the possible errors in the formula.
Formulas are protected so that accidental edit would not lead to erroneous
result.
3. There are helpful diagrams and formulas to guide the user.

Go ahead and try it out!

Comment below what are the possible improvements you want to include
in the future.

Conductor Sag and Tension Calculator (Even and

Uneven Elevation)

Free excel spreadsheet that calculates the sag and tension relationship
of transmission and distribution conductors. It solves uneven and even
elevation scenarios using the macro programming of excel.
