= 2 x 10-7 (1/4 + ln D/r1) = 2 x 10-7 (ln 1/4 + ln D/r1) = 2 x 10-7 ln D/r1-1/4
= 2 x 10-7 ln D/r’1 H/m
Where: r’1 = r1-1/4 = 0.7788r1
r’1 = G.M.R of conductor 1.

Using the symmetrical trans. technique, Labc can be decoupled to its sequence
inductances.

L positive sequence = 2 x 10 -7 ln (Deq/D6s) H/m
Where:
Deq = 3d1 x d1 x 2d1 = d1 32
and D6s = 4Daa Daa’ Da’a Da’a’
Ds = Daa = 0.7788r or from Table A: Da’a’ = Ds

Capacitance:
Cab Cbc
Can Cbn Ccn
Caa Cab Cac
Cp = Cab Cbb Cbc F/m
Cac Cbc Ccc Earth
Caa, Cbb and Ccc are positive and Cab, Cbc and Cac are negative.
If the line is completely transposed, the diagonal and off-diagonal elements of Cp are
arranged to obtain:
C C’ C’
Cp = C’ C C’ F/m
C’ C’ C
Where:
C = 1/3[Caa + Cbb + Ccc] F/m
C’ = 1/3[Cab + Cbc + Cac] F/m
Using the symmetrical transformation:
C 0 = C + 2C’
C 1 = C - C’
C 2 = C - C’
Since C’ is negative, the zero-sequence capacitance C 0 is usually much less than the positive
or negative sequence sequence capacitance.
