Abstract

The invention relates to a method for subsequently expanding the electrical transmission capacity of an overhead-line pylon system as part of an electrical high-voltage network, which comprises at least two overhead-line pylons, wherein the line cables stretched between the overhead-line pylons have a total transmission capacity and a total line cross-section, wherein the method provides for an increase in the total transmission capacity between the overhead-line pylons by recabling and/or an increase in the load-bearing capacity of the overhead-line pylons.
