T&D Syllabus

This document outlines the course syllabus for EE8402 Transmission and Distribution. The course is divided into 5 units that cover transmission line parameters, modeling transmission line performance, mechanical design of overhead lines, underground cabling systems, and distribution systems. Some of the key topics included are resistance, inductance, and capacitance parameters of transmission lines; short, medium, and long line models; voltage regulation; corona effects; types of transmission line towers; insulation resistance of underground cables; and distribution system techniques like voltage control and power factor improvement. The course references several textbooks on topics of power systems, transmission, distribution, and electrical engineering.
