Abstract: Ice-shedding can cause sharp tension change of the conductor and produce greater tension differences, which can easily cause serious electrical or mechanical accident of transmission lines. Therefore, an ice-shedding vibration mechanical model of conductors is established by the finite element transient dynamic method to analyze the influence factors of ice-shedding unbalanced tensions and to reveal the influence characteristics of various parameters on the unbalanced tensions. The results show that the unbalanced tension of ice-shedding increases with the increase of icing thickness, ice-shedding spans, ice-shedding rates and height differences of mutation; the unbalanced tension of ice-shedding tends to stabilize with the increase of the number of continuous spans; within a certain span, the unbalanced tension of ice-shedding decreases with the increase of suspended insulator length; and different ice-shedding modes has significant impacts on the unbalanced tension. The related research results can provide a reference for the subsequent structure design and formulation of scientific and reasonable ice melting and deicing measures.
