MEDIUM TRANSMISSION LINE
Medium transmission line is a line having a length between 80km to
240km and line voltage between 20kv to 100kv. The capacitance
effects are required to be in to account. Though the capacitance is
uniformly distributed over the entire length of the line, yet for the
simplification of calculation, the capacitance is assumed to be
concentrated at one or more points. Thus all the admittances are
lumped at sending - end, receiving-end or at center.
A number of localized capacitance methods have been used to make
approximate line performance calculations. The following methods are
more commonly used:
a) End condenser method
b) Nominal T method
c) Nominal pi method
These methods of calculation give reasonably accurate results for the
solution of most transmission-line problems.

Problem-3
3. A 3-phase, 50-Hz overhead transmission line 100 km long has the following
constants :
Resistance/km/phase = 0.1 Ω
Inductive reactance/km/phase = 0·2 Ω
Capacitive susceptance/km/phase = 0·04 × 10 −4 siemen
Determine (i) the sending end current (ii) sending end voltage (iii) sending
end power factor and (iv) transmission efficiency when supplying a balanced
load of 10,000 kW at 66 kV, p.f. 0·8 lagging. Use nominal T method.
• Solution. Figs. 3.11 (i) and 3.11 (ii) show the circuit diagram and phasor
diagram of the line respectively.
