Consider a 250km, 330kV, 50HZ, 3-phase transmission line with horizontal conductor geometry with spacing of 6m between phases using two bundled conductors with a spacing between conductors in the bundle of 0.24m. Assume the line is uniformly transposed and the conductors have a radius of 1.24cm (0.041ft). Note: 1m=3.28ft Calculate: i. The inductance per km and total reactance of the overhead line when the conductors are regularly transposed. [5Marks] ii. The capacitance per mile and total capacitive reactance per phase for the overhead line when the conductors are regularly transposed. [5Marks] iii. The DC and AC resistance of the bundled conductor per phase at room temperature of 20°C and at 40°C if the conductors are made of solid cylindrical aluminium: ?=2.83??cm, and ?=0.0039°C?¹ at 20°C (RAC=1.02 RDC) [5Marks]

A 115 kV three-phase transposed transmission line is composed of 2-ACSR 336,400 cmil, 30/7 Oriole conductors per phase with a horizontal configuration: D12 = 7 ft, D23 = 7 ft, and D13 = 14 ft. The line spacing is measured from the center of the bundled conductors. The distance between the conductors of the bundle is 6 inches. The conductors have a diameter of 0.741 inches and a GMR (geometric mean radius) of 0.02255 ft. Find the capacitance per phase for 20 km of the line in μF. A. 0.1300 B. 0.27189 C. 0.2889 D. 0.2609
