- phase line of a section 3 of an electric power transmission line which generally includes other phase lines (not shown).
- the phase line shown comprises two conductors 13 and 15 electrically isolated from one another and short-circuited between them at two ends of the section 3 by short-circuits 2.
- An equivalent circuit of the self inductance 8, mutual inductance 17 and resistance 10 is indicated.
- the apparatus comprises an electronic switch 59 which could also be a pair of electromechanical and electronic switches connected in parallel, and a passive component which in this case is a capacitor 11.
- the switch 59 and the capacitor 11 are connected in series with the conductor 13 of the phase line.
- the other driver 15 of the line phase is simply a short circuit.
- the simplified representation of a phase line shown in FIG. 1 makes it possible to understand that by opening and closing the switch 59 it is possible to vary the impedance of the section 3 of the line for transporting electrical energy.
- a person skilled in the art will also understand that the present configuration shows the elements of an RLC circuit (resistance, inductance and capacitor), and that the value of the capacitor 11 can be chosen as a function of the operating frequency to obtain 1 ' desired impedance.
- the addition of the capacitor 11 in series with the conductor 13 makes it possible to increase the current in one of the two conductors 13 and 15 of the phase line to a value greater than the current of the phase line which is the sum of the currents flowing in the conductors 13 and 15 of the phase line, so as, for example, to promote de-icing.
- de-icing of a conductor of a phase line is possible even when the current in the phase line is less than the required de-icing current. It is possible to pass the required de-icing current through the conductor even if the current of the phase line would have a value situated for example between the de-icing current and half of it.
