In power transmission line project, there are two type tower according to power current transmission type, AC and DC type. AC meant alternative current and DC direct current. In our china, DC power transmission used in 800KV line project and being first HVDC line from 1990s.
This photo refer to 800KV HVDC cross-mountain lattice overhead power transmission steel structure tower. There are only two phase conductor, which is six (or four )split ACSR and set OPGW on tower peak. The tower height from 50m to 80m, even higher or modify according to project requirements. Now in our china, HVDC transmission line not used widely, but for 400KV, 500KV and 800KV, China grid also run some lines. Because these tower will cross-river, then the tower height, weight and weight span data also bigger than other towers in the same lines.
Our MEGATRO provide and design this type 800KV HVDC cross-mountain lattice overhead power transmission steel structure tower, and mainly serve for our overseas client. Since 2004, MEGATRO focus mainly international market and had export many kind of transmission structures to overseas clients. MEGATRO has been manufacturing lattice transmission tower & tapered steel poles for lighting, traffic control, communication and utility applications. MEGATRO pioneered the development of transmission tower, telecom tower, substation, and other steel structure and was also at the forefront in the design of Transmission tower.
Today, with over 10 years of experience and our commitment to excellence, MEGATRO remains an industry leader in the manufacture and design of steel tubular & angular & monopole structures for all Highway, Municipal, Custom, telecom, lighting and electric Utility applications. MEGATRO has a complete staff of professional engineering personnel trained in the PLS Pole program and three different manufacturing processes for producing steel towers, poles and other supports. We utilize the latest versions of PLS-CADD, PLS-POLE, TOWER, AutoCAD and other CAD software.
The structure shall be designed according to load combinations given as per IEC 61936-1 and as illustrated below:
Normal loads
1 Dead weight load
2 Tension load
3 Erection load
4 wind load
Exceptional loads
1 Switching forces
2 short-circuit forces
3 Loss of conductor tension
4 Earthquake forces
MEGATRO is fully equipped and qualified to carry out Design Engineering services which includes:
√ Overhead Transmission line steel tower & Telecom steel tower
Basic Design and Analysis

√ As-Built Drawings
MEGATRO performs in-house design activities specializing in electrical overhead transmission &telecom tower steel works, which include wind and earthquake loading, static analysis, stress analysis by finite element methods and fatigue.
Our Engineering Department is boasting of highly qualified engineering who are conversant with international codes and standards. The work is carried out with extensive use of CAE/CAD via a large of computer network. The computer hardware & drafting software are liked to the CNC workshop equipment for downloading of information thereby eliminating error and saving valuable production time.
MEGATRO is one of the few manufactures who assemble a face of 800KV HVDC cross-mountain lattice overhead power transmission steel structure tower. This attention to quality may not be the cheapest process but it does insure every tower meets our high standards of quality. And it helps to reduce on-site construction cost due to mismatched assemblies. After fabrication all 800KV HVDC cross-mountain lattice overhead power transmission steel structure towers are delivered to the galvanizing facility to be Hot DIP Galvanized. Towers are processed through the facility by Caustic Cleaning, Pickling, and then Fluxing. These strict procedures insure years of maintenance free towers. MEGATRO' 800KV HVDC cross-mountain lattice overhead power transmission steel structure tower systems can accommodate a variety of cross-arm. MEGATRO also offers a wide variety of accessories and mounts.
