As power demand across the United States is increasing, it is becoming more common to route multiple utilities along shared rights-of-way. This may be an attractive option from a land acquisition perspective; however, it raises a host of separate issues, including safety (shock) hazards, risk of accelerated corrosion and damage to equipment on any paralleling metallic structures such as pipelines and railroad tracks. Conventional methods for mitigating this interference require physically connecting a grounding system to the affected pipeline or installing strategically placed shielding conductors to protect railways. The design and installation of these systems is generally out of the transmission line operator’s control. Electric utility operators looking to avoid high mitigation costs can utilize several techniques to proactively reduce interference.
