> The plants which can take up the load on the base portion of the load curve of the
power system are called as base load power plants. Load factor of such plants is very
high. Run-off river plants without pondage and reservoir plants are used as base load
power plants. Thermal and Nuclear power plants are also used as base load power
plants. Wind Farms are also used as Base Load Plants.
> Plants that are used to supply the peak load of the system ie. top portion of the load
curve are called as Peak Load Power Plants. Run off river plant with pondage can also
be used as Peak Load Power Plant. Peak Load plants have seasonal storage as they store
water during off peak periods and supply loads during peak load periods. Diesel
Power Plants are also used as Peak Load Power Plants.PO a a Se a a a a
> In these plants reservoir is used to supply water to a turbine during the
peak load periods and alternator is used as Synchronous Motor to pump
the water back into reservoir during the off peak periods.

‘Transmission Lines are used as power carrier or link between two nodes or buses.
At voltages up to 230 kV, the insulation level of lines and equipments is dictated by need
to protect against lightning. Peak: 345kV
On systems where voltages are above 230 KV but less than 700 KV switching operation &
lightning are potentially damaging to insulation.
For systems having voltages above 700 kV. Switching surges are main determinant of
level of insulation.
> Voltage Levels
> High voltage (HV) - it is 11kV, 33kV ¥
> Extra High voltage (EHV) - 66kV, 132kV, 220kV/
> Modern extra high voltage (MEHV) - 400kV //
> Ultra high voltage (UHV) - 765kV or above \/
Transmission at higher voltage reduces the Transmission Losses but also requires more
insulation.
If current density remains constant, then current rating of the transmission line is
decided on the basis of the cross sectional area of the conductor (I A)a a SE a a a ee ee
Single Strand Conductor
+ Hollow Conductors are preferred to Solid Conductors as for same cross sectional area
they have higher outer radius due to which corona loss is lesser.
* In Single Strand Conductor skin effect is more. Skin effect is tendency of AC current to
be concentrated on the surface of conductor.
Cause of Skin Effect: Non-uniform distribution of magnitude flux linkages Due to skin
effect, the effective area of cross section of conductor decrease and hence resistances
increases.
Skin Depth,6 = ,| 2
ous
In case of DC, There is no skin effect so Roc At]
Skin Effect is absent in case of DC Transmission.
Skin effect is more in communication lines as frequency is in MHz range
+ Instead of a single conductor multiple smaller strands are bundled together to
increase the electrical cross sectional area and thus reduce the skin effect.
Due to non-uniform outer surface of the conductor the corona loss increases as
compared to solid conductor.
Tensile Strength of the conductor also reduces which increases the sag of the
conductor so we use Composite Stranded Conductor where central strand is
made of Steel and is called as Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR).‘The conduction area for solid and stranded conductors having same outer diameter has
been shown in the fi;

sesistancedThe shaded region indicates the conduction area in both types of conductors. From
the figure we can see that electrical cross section area (conduction area or shaded
area) of stranded conductor is more as compared to Solid Conductor so resistance of
stranded conductor is less as compared to Solid Conductor. Hence, skin effect
reduces in case of Stranded Conductors.
But the outer surface of Stranded Conductor is non-uniform and hence there are
edges. Since, edges have lesser cross sectional area the current density and electric
field are higher and hence corona loss is higher in stranded conductor.
For given cross section area, in a stranded conductor, if number of strands are more,
skin effect reduces. Conductor surface becomes smoother & corona loss also reducesSE Se a a a ee a
Composite Stranded Conductors replace Homogeneous Stranded Conductors
in order to increase tensile strength or reduce Sag. Figure : Cross Sectional
View of Composite Stranded Conductors
Central or internal strands of normal AAC will be replaced with the new
strands having good mechanical & tensile strength. Here, the central strand is
made of a different material usually steel.
Steel has more tensile strength as compared to aluminum so tensile strength of
conductor increases. Steel strands only provide mechanical strength & it will
not carry any amount of current. An example of Composite Stranded
Conductor is shown in figure where central strand is made of Steel. Such
conductor is called as, ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced).ACSR represented bys ratio.
x = Number of steel strands
y = Number of aluminum strands
For the conductor shown above, we have one steel strand and 6 Aluminum strands. So, it
can be named as ACSR =.
For power conductors, number of Al strands > number of steel strands.
As number of layers increase, number of strands increment will follow the series
1(1* layer)+ 6(2™4 layer) +12+18+24+30+.......
Total number of conductors = (3x? + 3x + 1)

ACSR is suitable for HVAC Transmission line. a
ACSR is also suitable for HVDC Transmission line that is due to stringing property.
Conductors are natured i.e. we choose such a conductor which have more mechanical
strength & more stringing property.
Paper/Hessian will be placed in the inter-layer region of ASCR conductor, the resultant
size of conductor increases & electric field reduces due to which corona loss reduces, this
type of conductor is called as expanded ACSR conductoComparison oes cond?

Points to Remember
For a feeder power loss should be minimum.
* Fora distributor voltage drop should be minimum.
+ High voltage transmission is used to minimize transmission losses.
+ For voltage rating above 345 KV, insulation is designed on the basis of switching
overvoltage.

|. To determine the performance of the Transmission Line we need to draw its equivalent
circuit.
Equivalent Circuit refers to representation of a physical apparatus or device in terms of
network elements so that performance can be analyzed by using basic network analysis.
The equivalent circuit consists of Inductance due to flux linkage in a conductor, resistance
of the conductor, capacitance due to charge storage on the surface of conductor and
leakage resistance due to Insulator Resistance connecting the link to tower.
Here, the current in one conductor is shown to be I and in other two as -I/2 as other two

1, When there are multiple conductors then there are two types of flux linkage which are self
and mutual. Self Flux implies when the flux produced by a conductor passes through the
same conductor and mutual flux is when flux due to one conductor passes through other
conductor. In order to simplify such configuration of conductors by replacing them with
two conductor. The separation between two such conductors in order to have same
mutual flux as original configuration is called as Geometric Mean Distance. In single
phase 2 wire line, there are only 2 conductors and hence their separation itself is equal to
GMD.
2. Similarly, if we want to replace group of conductors by a single conductor so that self flux
linkage remains same the radius of such hypothetical conductor is decided on the basis of
GMR of the system. So, both these distances are hypothetical and exist for an equivalentInductance of a Transmission line

1. If the wave in the Transmission Line does not suffer any distortion in the wave shape as wave
propagates in the Transmission Line, it is called as Distortion Less Line.
2. The condition of Distortion less transmission is, Time constant of series part = Time constant of
. This condition is same as the condition for a network to be independent of frequency because if
a wave is non-sinusoidal then it contains multiple frequencies and if the output is independent
of frequency then all frequencies experience equal delay. Hence, the shape of the wave at the
receiving end of the line is unaltered.
|. As shown in the figure above that due to resistance and conductance of the line the wave may be
attenuated i.e. amplitude may change but wave shape should remain constant,,

If the voltage magnitude and current magnitude remains same at all points on the
Transmission Line but the phase may be different, then it is termed as Flat Line or Infinite
Line.
Flat Line implies that the voltage profile on the line is flat or the voltage magnitude at all
points on the transmission line is equal.
A Transmission Line terminated in Characteristic Impedance is termed as Flat Line or
Infinite Line.
Infinite Line implies that there is no reflected wave generated if the line is terminated in
characteristic impedance due to which it appears that there is no receiving end in the line
or the length of the line is infinite.ZOE es a ee a ee ea

sending end voltage and to boost the receiving end voltage we connect a shunt
capacitor at receiving end.
Similarly, in case of leading loads, receiving end voltage is higher than sending
end voltage so we connect a shunt reactor to avoid over-voltage.
We can also use series capacitor to improve voltage regulation. It also improves
Stability but also increases Fault Current but at the same time it also causes the
problem of Sub-Synchronous Resonance.

the ground and to prevent the leakage of current into the ground we make use of
Insulation over the conductor.
Insulating Material must have following properties,
* High Insulation Resistance ./
+ High Dielectric Strength
+ Non - hygroscopic (less corrosive),/
* Free from impurities ,/
* Insulators should be electrically & chemically ieee
. Generally, the following materials are used as insulators and their dielectric strengths
are also mentioned against each material
* Vulcanized Rubber : 10 - 20 kV/mm. sXLPE
* Poly Vinyl Chloride: 18 kV/mm
* Impregnated Paper: 30 KV/mm| Metallic Sheath
4 If moisture enters the insulation then the dielectric strength of the material reduces.

From the equations above, as length of conductor increases,
then R._. increases but R,, decreases
Insulators have negative temperature coefficient so as Temperature increases the resistance of
Insulator will decrease and thus leakage current through the insulator will increase.
