Abstract
The demand for improved rural electrification has drawn attention to the role played by fatigue of aluminium alloys. Sample calculations for a typical installation in rural electrification illustrate the use of transfer function analysis. It is found that a reduction of some 59% in material can be achieved without loss of safety. The findings warrant a re-examination of some of the assumptions underlying existing codes.
