The ABCD parameters of a $$3$$-phase overhead transmission line are $$\,A = D = 0.9\angle {0^ \circ }.\,\,B = 200\,\angle {90^ \circ }\,\,\Omega \,\,\,$$ and $$\,\,C = 0.95\, \times \,\,{10^{ - 3}}\angle {90^ \circ }\,\,S.\,\,\,\,$$ At no-load condition, a shunt inductive reactor is connected at the receiving end of the line to limit the receiving end voltage to be equal to the sending-end voltage. The ohmic value of the reactor is

A dc distribution system is shown in figure with load currents as marked. The two ends of the feeder are fed by voltage sources such that $${V_P} - {V_Q} = 3V.$$ the value of the voltage $${V_P}$$ for a minimum voltage of $$220$$ $$V$$ at any point along the feeder is

A surge of 20 kV magnitude travels along a lossless cable towards its junction with two identical lossless overhead transmission lines. The inductance and the capacitance of the cable are 0.4 mH and 0.5 $$\mu F$$ per km. The inductance and capacitance of the overhead transmission lines are 1.5 mH and 0.015 $$\mu F$$ per km. The magnitude of the voltage at the junction due to surge is

In a transmission line each conductor is at $$20$$ $$kV$$ and is supported by a string of $$3$$ suspension insulators. The air capacitance between each cap-pin junction and tower is one-fifth of the capacitance $$C$$ of each insulation unit. A guard ring, effective only over the line-end insulator unit is fitted so that the voltages on the two units nearest the line-end are equal.

(a) Calculate the voltage on the line-end unit.
(b) Calculate the value of capacitance $${C_x}$$ required.
