what are the advantages of having high voltage in transmission
lines?

Answer Posted / eee16247

if we use high voltage there is an increase in surge impedance loading(SIL)
SIL=((v^2)/Xc)=(I^2*Xl) ,that means we can increase power transfer capability of the line
so it is economical

I don't understand why when we connect high voltage source in DC to electronic motor , we must add capacitor and resistor in parallel ? (I know that we use capacitor because we want to absorb the current that in the first second electronic motor in opposed with current course produce. ) what are the feature of Resistor and in such situation ?
