Hy the hydro power stations have high transmission and
Distribution costs?

Answer Posted / guest

I dont think the distribution cost will be more than other
power sources. but yes, distribution cost will be more
usualy because these are located very far from load
centres. here the source is water at high potential and it
is not found near to populated areas.

Why distribution cost will be more, once transmitted to
load centres, the power distributin will be same
irrespective or power generated by hydro or thermal.

Any inputs on this answer are welcome.

My question is whether bellow formula is correct to find bus size for 46kA for 0.5 second & what is RT in bellow formula. formula to calculate the size of busbar to withstand the thermal stresses due to currents with duration of 0.2 sec to 5 sec. Sp = RT( I x I x t) / K Where Sp – is the cross sectional area of bus bar in millimeters. I -    is the value of AC fault current. t -    is the operating time of disconnecting device in seconds. K –  is the factor depending on the material of the conductor, insulation and initial and final temperature. Value of ‘k’ for copper is 143.
