Abstract
The paper describes backup alternatives for 110 kV lines. Line backup is one of input parameters used to optimise the renovation of 110 kV lines. The optimisation is based on the principle of reliability centred maintenance (RCM) which depends on the technical condition and importance of a particular element. The paper starts with illustrating the method of reliability schemes. This method enables the evaluation of failure-free operation probability. The probability of a failure-free operation can be estimated for all backup types of 110 kV lines existing in the distribution network. To compare different backup alternatives, type lines were selected and calculated with. The results of the method helped estimate the effects of a line failure for a particular distribution district.
