Q1: Determine the inductance of a 3-phase line operating at 50 Hz and conductors arranged as follows. The
conductor diameter is 0.8 cm.
Q2: A 3-phase double circuit line has its conductors at the vertices of a regular hexagon with a side of 3.5 m.

between adjacent conductors and 6 m between outer conductors. The conductor diameter is 2 cm. Find the
Inductance per phase.
Given: (l=50km, D=3m between adjacent conductors, D=6m between outer conductors, Diameter = 2 cm)
Q4: A 3-phase single circuit bundled conductor line with two sub-conductors per phase has horizontal
spacing with 6.1 m between the centre lines of adjacent phases. The distance between the sub-conductors of
each phase is 30.5 cm, and each sub-conductor has a diameter of 2.54 cm. Find the inductance per phase per
km.
Q5: Find the inductance per km of a three-phase transmission line using 1.24 cm diameter conductors when
these are placed at the corners of an equilateral triangle of each side 2 m. If these conductors are rearranged
at the corners of a triangle of sides 2 m, 2.5 m and 4.5 m, then recalculate the new inductance per km of the
line.
Q6: Determine the inductance of a single-phase transmission line consisting of three conductors of 2.5 mm
radii in the ‘go’ conductor and 5 mm radii in the return conductor. The configuration of line is as shown
below.
Q7: A 765 kV, 50 Hz single circuit line has three sub conductors per phase. Each sub conductor has a diameter
of 31.68 mm and sub conductor spacing of 45 cm. The interface spacing is 15.25 m. The configuration is
horizontal. Find the inductive reactance per phase per kilometre.
Q8: A double circuit 3-phase overhead line has a configuration as shown in fig. The distance between
conductors a and c’ is 7.5 m, between b and b’ is 10 m and between a and c is 8 m. The radius of each conductor
is 1.284 cm. Find the inductance per phase per km.
