Problem 1. Consider the overhead line configuration shown in Fig. 1. The system fre-
quency is 60 Hz. Lines are transposed to maintain balanced three-phase operation. All
conductors have a diameter of 0.5 in. Calculate the inductive reactance of this line in
ohms/mile for a single phase.

Figure 1: Figure for problem 1.

Problem 2. Consider the bundled overhead line configuration shown in Fig. 2. The system
frequency is 60 Hz. Lines are transposed to maintain balanced three-phase operation. All
conductors have a diameter of 0.5 in. Within a bundle, the conductors are arranged as
an equilateral triangle, and the distance between them is 10 in. Calculate the inductive
reactance of this line in ohms/mile for a single phase.

Figure 2: Figure for problem 2.

Problem 3. A 230-kV, 60-Hz, three-phase completely transposed overhead line has one
conductor per phase and flat horizontal phase spacing, with 8 m between adjacent conductors.
Each conductor has a radius of 10 mm. Determine the inductance in H/m and the inductive
reactance in Ω/km.

Problem 4. Calculate the capacitance-to-neutral in F/m and the admittance-to-neutral in


S/km for the three-phase line in Problem 3. Also calculate the line-charging current in kA/
phase if the line is 100 km in length and is operated at 230 kV. Neglect the effect of the
earth plane.

Problem 5. A 400-km, 230-kV, 60-Hz three-phase line has a series impedance z = 0.1 +
j0.5Ω/km and shunt admittance y = j33.3 × 10−6 S/km. Find the parameters in the equiv-
alent π model (i.e., the Z 0 and Y 0 values).

Problem 6. A 25 km, 60 Hz three-phase line has a series impedance of z = 0.19 +


j0.34Ω/km. The load at the receiving end absorbs 9 MW+j2 MVar at 33 kV. Assuming a
short line, find the sending end voltage.

Problem 7. In the class we ignored the impact of the earth on the shunt conductance of
the lines. If we were to include the effect of the earth plane, would the shunt capacitance be
larger or smaller? Give a short, intuitive explanation.
