    摘要: A hybrid single or multilayer composite reinforcement system is disclosed. The system is configured to install or apply around the existing power transmission lines, for example, ACSR transmission lines for increasing ampacity and also decreasing sag of the power transmission lines. The hybrid composite system comprises a first layer, a second layer, and a composite core as a structural reinforcement component. The first layer and second layer are formed using a fiber reinforced resin composite material, comprising a basalt fiber and the structural reinforcement component is a carbon fiber. The composite core is disposed between the first layer and second layer. Further, the first layer and second layer are cured, thereby making the multilayer hybrid composite reinforcement system. The composite core, comprising for example carbon fiber, provides structural strength for the hybrid composite system. The system is novel, lightweight, fast and easy to install, long-lasting, reliable, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective.
