A 100 km long transmission line is loaded at 110 kV.if the loss of line is 5 MW and the load is 150 MVA, the resistance of the line is?

4 Answers

Answer :

A 100 km long transmission line is loaded at 110 kV.if the loss of line is 5 MW and the load is 150 MVA, the resistance of the line is 8.06 ohms per phase.

Answer :

Line loss, P=I^2  * R

5*10^6  = [(150 * 10^6)  / (110* 10^3)]  *R

R  =  2.7 ohm/phase  

Answer :

P =I^2  *  R


5*10^6  =  [(150 * 10^6 ) / (110*10^3)   *  R

R = 2.7 ohm/phase  

Answer :

P = I^2  *  R


5*10^6  = [(150*10^6) / (110*10^3)  *  R

R = 2.7 ohm/phase
