This paper proposes a methodology for overhead line ampacity forecasting that enables empirical probabilistic forecasts to be made up one day ahead, which is useful grid scheduling and operation. The proposed method based on the statistical adaptation of weather line-span scale aims produce reliable allow selection low risk overheating conductors by TSOs DSOs. Moreover, evaluation capacity utilization also proposed.

Operation and planning of a power system are constrained by the rating lines. Usually, static line is used for operation planning. The defined an electric grid uses same conservative weather assumptions whole regardless location each or its maximum-allowable conductor temperature. A separate analysis magnitudes measured in pilot shows how favorable air temperature solar heating compensate unfavorable wind speed. However, this compensation limited higher temperatures. As result, risk...
