Question # 01
Why there is no capacitance between conductors of submarine dc cables ?
Answer:
This accumulation of charge effect is very less in case of insulator and is negligible because there is no
way for electrons to flow through the volume of material like in case of conductor. Hence only
conductors make up capacitor not insulator. Due to smaller distance and lower line voltage, the
capacitance effects are extremely small and, so are neglected.

In transmission lines the shunt conductance and shunt capacitance are neglected and so only series
resistance and inductance are to be considered. Any two conductors separated by an insulator form a
capacitor. A capacitor cannot pass DC because there's no conducting path from one of the two
conductors to the other. DC currents must flow around closed paths.

You cannot put AC conductors into a common cable without suffering unacceptable losses due to
inter-conductor capacitance (Capacitors pass AC). Even putting them in separate insulated cables won’t
help as the water conducts and you have again high capacitance between the conductors.This is why
they are separated so far on electricity pylons - to reduce the capacitance as well as to prevent
arcing.With DC you can stick them right next to each other (properly insulated) and not worry about the
capacitance.
Question # 02
How many Generating stations in Pakistan ? write down their generating
capacity , generating voltage and installed capacity in table or bullet ?
Answer:
According to the Pakistan Economic Survey 2019-20, the installed electricity generation capacity
reached 37,402 MW in 2020. The maximum total demand coming from residential and industrial estates
stands at nearly 25,000 MW, whereas the transmission and distribution capacity is stalled at
approximately 22,000 MW. This leads to a deficit of about 3,000 MW when the demand peaks. This
additional 3,000 MW required cannot be transmitted even though the peak demand of the country is
well below its installed capacity of 37,402 MW.

Electricity in Pakistan is generated, transmitted, distributed, and retail supplied by two vertically
integrated public sector companies, Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) for all of
Pakistan (except Karachi), and the Karachi Electric (K-Electric) for the city of Karachi and its surrounding
areas. There are around 42 independent power producers (IPPs) that contribute significantly in
electricity generation in Pakistan.

Electricity generation
• Electricity – generation: 148.25 GWh (2019)
• Electricity – generation by source (2019)
o Furnace oil: 14% of total
o Natural gas: 31% of total
o Coal: 16% of total
o Hydroelectric: 29% of total
o Nuclear: 4% of total
o Renewable (solar & wind): 5% of total
o Others (Bagasse, Waste Heat Recovery etc.): 1% of total
