INTRODUCTION

Transmission lines are a bridge between the generation and distribution in electrical
power system. Power is transmitted using high voltage transmission lines to
minimize the losses. The problem however associated with high voltage transmission
is that of electric field around these high voltage lines. In these lab tasks, this
problem is investigated in COMSOL multiphysics environment.
