2. Single Phase, Two wires with midpoint earthed
3. Single Phase, Three wires

Two Phase Systems

1. Two Phase, Three wires

2. Two Phase, Four wires

Three Phase Systems

1. Three Phase, Three wires

2. Three Phase, Four wires

DC System

1. DC Two Wires
2. DC Two Wires with midpoint earthed
3. DC Three Wires
CHARACTERISTICS OF TRANSMISSION LINE AT DIFFERENT VOLTAGE LEVEL

LOAD WITH LAGGING POWER FACTOR

LOAD WITH UNITY POWER FACTOR

 LOAD WITH LEADING POWER FACTOR

1. If lagging (inductive) loads are added at the end of a line, the voltage at the end of
transmission line decreases.
2. If leading (capacitive) loads are added at the end of a line, the voltage at the end of
transmission line increases.

PARAMETERS OF TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

 Line Reactance
 Line Resistance
 Line Charging Susceptance
 Current Rating (AMPACITY)
 Surge Impedance Loading
