This paper presents a computational strategy proposal for optimise the physical arrangements of electrical power system overhead lines to increase the power transmission. The technique employs the Genetic Algorithms Theory to find the best geometric arrangement by weighting the optimal phase and sub-conductors spacing as well as the line heights. The target to be achieved is the maximum power at the receiver end. In order to emphasize the approach and the developed computational tool, the methodology is applied to typical 34.5 and 138 kV overhead lines.
