what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / venkatesh

output voltage is greater than the input voltage or
receiveing end voltage is greater than the sending end
voltage

Is This Answer Correct ?    26 Yes 2 No

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / giridhar

receivg end voltage is greater than the sending end voltage
bcoz of capacitive effect at receving end in a transmission
line

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / mahesh sali

ferranti effect is mostly occur on EHV transmission line ,
Ferranti effect is effect where receiving end voltage is
greater than sending end voltage, this is happened because
of following reason ;

1) Due to the line charging capacitor voltage between the
line and ground , adding some voltage into the line , that
will cause to get higher voltage at receiving end.

2) At load light load condition , compensation devices at
receiving end for voltage compensation adding the voltage
into the system , that will cause to get the higher
voltage

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / ahmed

This effect normally occurs when cables are used as tranmission medium...it's because in cables, the capacitive reactance is normally greater then the inductive reactance resulting in the rise of receiving end voltage to a level greater then the sending end.

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / arunkutti

it s simply explained.SENDING END VOLTAGE<RECEVING END
VOLTAGE.BASICALLY is not possible .but some times occrs in
surge impedence

Is This Answer Correct ?    6 Yes 2 No

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / pasha

Ferranti effect is when the capacitive quality of line
exceeds the inductive capability causing a higher end
voltage compared to the voltage at the start of the line.

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / nagarjuna

WHEN THE INPUT VOLTAGE IS LOWER THAN THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE ,THEN WE SAY THAT IT IS FERRANTI EFFECT.THIS WIL OCCUR DUE TO HIGHER CAPACITANCE IN LINE THAN INDUCTANCE.

Is This Answer Correct ?    6 Yes 2 No

what is ferranti effect?..

Answer / lipunkumar2011@gmail.com

Ferranti effect is occurred in medium and long transmission line. The receiving end voltage is greater than sending end voltage at no load or light load due to capacitance effect.
