  • Analyse performance of short and medium lines
  • Calculate A, B, C, D parameters from mathematical models
3.1 INTRODUCTION

Generally, power is generated at generating stations and is then supplied to the various categories of consumers through transmission lines. They act, therefore, as pathways for the flow of power from its source to the consumption points in a power system. A transmission line therefore, has both sending and receiving ends and its own parameters namely, series resistance and inductance, and shunt capacitance and conductance. The performance ...
