Underground Cables: Electric power can be transmitted or distributed either by overhead system or by underground cables. The underground cables have several advantages such as less liable to damage through storms…
Corona: When an alternating potential difference is applied across two conductors whose spacing is large as compared to their diameters, there is no apparent change in the condition of atmospheric…
Line Support: The supporting structures for overhead line conductors are various types of poles and towers called line support. In general, the line supports should have the following properties :…
Introduction to Overhead Line: Electric power can be transmitted or distributed either by means of underground cables or by overhead line. The underground cables are rarely used for power transmission…
Economic Choice of Conductor Size: The cost of conductor material is generally a very considerable part of the total cost of a transmission line. Therefore, the determination of proper Conductor…
Comparison of Conductor Material in Overhead System: In comparing the relative amounts of Conductor Material in Overhead System necessary for different systems of transmission, similar conditions will be assumed in…
Electric Supply System: The conveyance of electric power from a power station to consumers' premises is known as Electric Supply System. An electric supply system consists of three principal components…
Various Types of Electricity Tariff: The electrical energy produced by a power station is delivered to a large number of consumers. The consumers can be persuaded to use electrical energy…
