Selection and Specifications Of Transmission Line

Following factors are affecting the selection and specifications of transmission lines:

  • ✓ Size of transmission conductors
  • ✓ Spacing and distance between conductors
  • ✓ Insulator types
  • ✓ Insulation co-ordination
  • ✓ Voltage regulation
  • ✓ Power losses
  • ✓ Voltage level of transmission line
  • ✓ Tower designs
  • ✓ Clearance levels
  • ✓ Noise emission
  • ✓ Corona loss
  • ✓ Weather conditions e.g. temperature, wind etc.
  • ✓ Mechanical strength of selected conductors
  • ✓ Air pollution

In high temperature regions, conductor material chosen for transmission line should have higher temperature coefficient of resistance. Wind load affects the sag clearance putting more pressure on transmission lines.

Mechanical strength of selected conductors should be higher to avoid breaking of conductor due to wind pressure or increase in temperature etc.

Moisturised air or polluted air causes chemical effects on transmission lines leading to damage. Towers are giving mechanical support to the transmission lines.

Useful Electrical Articles Must Read:

Non proper design of tower leads to failure or damage to the transmission lines. Voltage level decides the size of transmission line conductors used for transfer of power.

Insulators are needed to be proper size and rating. If it is not there it leads to flashover  of and braking transmission line conductors.

Proper spacing and distance between conductors should be maintains other it leads to short circuit during operations or working.

Basic Insulation Level (BIL) should be maintained. Improper insulation co-ordination leads to failure of transmission lines in case of faults.

Larger power losses affect the efficiency and performance of transmission lines. So transmission line conductors should have low resistance.

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction To Arduino Arduino is an Italian company that designs and manufactures Open Source Hardware (Microcontroller) and Open Source software or IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Arduino hardware is such a programmable computerized platform, by working on which the user can combine the hardware and software and prepare the electronic brain according to his own and can control the electronic devices from that electronic brain. What is arduino? If you want to understand more easily, then we can say that Arduino microcontroller is an empty brain, in which you can upload memory by coding or programming through arduino software, so these are called open source. Arduino works like a CPU of a board computer. Right now the microcontroller of the arduino of this time that we can take up is lik

The microprocessor is capable of performing computing functions and making decisions to change the sequence of program execution. In large computers, the central processing unit(CPU) performs these computing functions and it is implemented on one or more circuit boards. The microprocessor is in many ways similar to the CPU, however, the microprocessor includes all the logic circuitry(including the control unit)on one chip. The microprocessor consists of the following three segments which is shown in below diagram. Block Diagram of Microproce

What is Instrumentation? And Modes of Measurement

What is Instrumentation? And Modes of Measurement Definition of Instrumentation The technology of using instruments to measure and control the physical and chemical properties of materials is called “ instrumentation ". What is Instrumentation? And Modes of Measurement When the instruments are used for the measurement and control of industrial manufacturing , conversion or treatment processes, the term process instrumentation is applied. When the measuring and controlling instruments are combined so that measurements provide impulses for remote automatic action, the result is called a control system. Modes of Measurement There are the three modes of measurement: 1. Primary Measurement 2. Secondary Measurement 3. Tertiary Measurement All the three modes are described below: (1) Primary Measurements In the primary measurement sought value of a parameter is determined by comparing it directly with reference standar
