Overhead

This document provides 6 tutorial problems for calculating the inductance per kilometer of various overhead cable configurations for single-phase and 3-phase transmission lines. The problems involve determining inductance values based on conductor spacing, diameter, arrangement in triangles or lines, and whether the lines are transposed. The inductance values range from 0.971 to 2.22 mH/km/phase depending on the specific cable design parameters given in each problem.

Overhead Cables

1. A single-phase line has two parallel conductors 1 meter apart. The radius of each conductor is
0.5 cm. Calculate the loop inductance per km of the line. (2.22 mH)

2. Find the inductance per km per phase of a 3-phase overhead transmission line using 2 cm
diameter conductor when these are placed at the corner of an equilateral triangle of side 4
meters. (1.25 mH)

3. The three conductors of a 3-phase line are arranged at the corners of a triangle of sides 4, 5 and
6 meters. Calculate inductance per km of the each conductor when conductors are regularly
transposed. (1.285 mH)

4. The three-conductors of a 3-phase overhead line are arranged in horizontal plane with a spacing
of 4 m between the adjacent conductors. The diameter of each conductor is 2 cm. Determine
the inductance per km per phase of the line assuming the lines are transposed. (1.3 mH)

5. Determine the inductance per km of a 3-phase transmission line using 20 mm diameter
conductor when conductors are at the centers of a triangle with spacing of 4, 5 and 6 meters.
Conductors are regularly transposed. (1.29 mH/km/phase)

6. Determine the inductance of a 3-phase symmetrical line whose conductors are placed at the
corners of an equilateral triangle of sides 1 meter. The diameter of each conductor is 20 mm.
(0.971 mH/phase/km)
