The document discusses performance assessment of transmission lines. It provides formulas to calculate transmission efficiency, voltage regulation, complex power loss, active power loss, and voltage, current, and power factor at the sending end. It describes how to use ABCD parameters to model transmission lines. It also defines short, medium, and long transmission lines based on length, and provides specific formulas to calculate performance for short lines which consider only resistance and inductance. Two examples are included to demonstrate calculations of sending end voltage, voltage regulation, power factor to achieve zero regulation, and capacitor value to reduce regulation to zero.

If Vr in kV and Zc in ohm then SIL will be in MW.

SIL is called natural power of transmission line.

Ferranti effect: The line current becomes capacitive at no load or low load condition for
long and medium transmission line. The receiving end voltage becomes more than sending
end voltage due to this reason. This phenomenon is called Ferranti effect.

Remedy: Shunt inductive compensation.
