Questions:
1. A 132 kV, 50 Hz, 3-phase transmission line delivers a load of 50 MW at 0.8 p.f. lagging at
∠1.4º; B = 96 ∠78º; C = 0.0015 ∠90º. Find the regulation of the line and charging
the receiving end. The generalized constants of the transmission line are: A = D = 0.95
current. Use Nominal-T method.

2. A balanced three phase load of 30 MW is supplied at 132 kV, 50 Hz and 0.8 p.f. lagging
by means of a transmission line. The series impedance of a single conductor is (20 + j52)
Ω and total phase neutral admittance is 315 × 10 -6 Siemens. Using Nominal T method
determine (i) A, B, C and D constants of the line (ii) sending end voltage and (iii)
regulation of the line. [CO2, L3]
3. A 150 km, three phase, 110 kV, 50 Hz transmission line transmits a load of 40,000 kW at
0.8 p.f. lagging at the receiving end. Resistance/km/phase = 0.15Ω; reactance/km/phase =
0.6 Ω; Susceptance/km/phase = 10−5 S. Determine (i) the A, B, C and D constants of the
line (ii) regulation of the line. [CO2, L3]
