A 765 KV, 60 Hz double circuit three phase transposed transmission is composed of two ACSR 2,167,000
cmil, 72/7 Kiwi conductor per phase with vertical configuration as shown in figure below. Each conductor
has a diameter of 4.4069 cm a GMR of 1.7374 cm. The bundle spacing is 45 cm. the circuit arrangement is
a1b1c1, c2b2a2. The given structure of the line is our design objective. It is required to reach: The line
resistance (/Km), the line inductance (mH/km), the line capacitance (F/km).The line MAVRS per Km.
The practical line loadability for a distance of 600 Km then its steady state stability limit.
