Nominal Π Representation of a Medium Transmission Line: I I I I I I
An electric transmission line is modeled using series resistance, series inductance, shunt
capacitance, and shunt conductance. The line resistance and inductive reactance are important.
For some studies like for short and medium transmission line it is possible to omit the shunt
capacitance and conductance and thus simplify the equivalent circuit considerably.
In case of a nominal representation, the lumped series impedance is placed at the middle of the
circuit where as the shunt admittances are at the ends. As we can see from the diagram of the
network below, the total lumped shunt admittance is divided into 2 equal halves, and each half
with value Y 2 is placed at both the sending and the receiving end while the entire circuit
impedance is between the two. The shape of the circuit so formed resembles that of a symbol ,
and for this reason it is known as the nominal representation of a medium transmission line. It
is mainly used for determining the general circuit parameters and performing load flow analysis.
As we can see here, VS and VR is the supply and receiving end voltages respectively, and Is is
the current flowing through the supply end.
