Capacitance of Transmission Lines 77<br />

3.2. ig. 3.24 shows a double circuits three-phase transposed line composed of two conductors. The<br />

conductors have a radius of 2.203 cm and a GMR of 1.737 cm. The bundle spacing is 0.45 m. ind<br />

the capacitance per phase per km. ind this value when the circuit arrangement is a 1b 1c 1, a 2b 2c 2.<br />

ig. 3.24<br />

Ans. 0.024 m/km, 0.022 m/km<br />

3.3. ind the capacitance of phase to neutral per km of a three-phase line having conductors of 1 cm<br />

radius placed at the corners of a triangle with sides 5m, 6m and 7m respectively. Assume that the<br />

line is fully transposed and carries balanced load.<br />

Ans. 8.72 × 10 –3 m/km<br />

3.4. A three-phase transmission line has inductance 1.2 mH/km. The diameter of each conductor is 4<br />

cm. The conductors are equilaterally spaced. Determine the capacitance of phase to neutral.<br />

Ans. 9.652 × 10 –6 m/km<br />

3.5. ig. 3.25 shows the arrangement of a three phase line. The diameter of each conductor is 6 cm and<br />

the spacing between the phase conductors is 0.35 m. Determine the capacitance and charging<br />

current per km, if the line is operating at 50 Hz, 220 kV.<br />

ig. 3.25<br />

Ans. 11.71 × 10 –6 m/m/ph;<br />

0.467 Amp/km/phase<br />

3.6. ig. 3.26 shows a three phase double circuit line. Radius of each conductor is 1 cm. Determine the<br />

capacitance and charging current per km. Assume that the line is transposed and operating voltage<br />

is 220 kV, 50 Hz.<br />

ig. 3.26<br />

Ans. 0.020168 m/km<br />

0.8043 Amp/km
