Resistance and Inductance of Transmission Lines 51<br />

EXERCISE<br />

2.1. A single phase transmission line is composed of three conductors having radius r x = 0.5 cm. The<br />

return circuit is composed of two conductors having radius r y = 2.5 cm. ig. 2.31 shows the<br />

conductor arrangement. ind the inductance.<br />

2.2. Determine the GMR of the bundle<br />

consisting of n similar subconductors<br />

as shown in ig. 2.32.<br />

ig. 2.31<br />

Ans. 1.486 mH/km<br />

2.3. ig. 2.33 shows the configuration of a three phase line. (a) calculate the inductive reactance per km<br />

at 50 Hz. (b) ind the radius of the equivalent single conductor line that would have the same<br />

inductive reactance as the given line.<br />

ig. 2.33<br />

Ans. (a) 0.291 ohm/km<br />

(b) 26.72 cm<br />

2.4. Configuration of a three phase, 60 Hz transposed transmission line is shown in ig. 2.34. The line<br />

reactance is 0.486 ohm/km. The conductor GMR is 2.0 cm. Determine D.<br />
