What happens if the capacitive reactance of a transmission line is very high?..

Answer / prashant singh

when capecitive reactance of transmission line is high then
more charging current will flow through line rhen losses
will increases. and due to capecitive effect reciving end
voltage high the sending end voltage. and voltage
distribution is goes unequal.

What happens if the capacitive reactance of a transmission line is very high?..

Answer / akshay dhar

This effect is prmarily known as Ferranti effect & due to which the receiving end voltage will be greater than the sending end voltage (abt 5-10% of Vs)

What happens if the capacitive reactance of a transmission line is very high?..

Answer / subhani

when capecitive reactance oftransmission line is high then
the power factor of the system will increase.sometimes it
may lead to ferranti effect also...

What happens if the capacitive reactance of a transmission line is very high?..

Answer / abhishek kunwar

when capacitive reactance of transmission line high then
high charging current will flow through line.due to leading
effect losses are increase.and this will inject the voltage
from receiving end and at receiving end voltage level increase.

on 22.03.2015 at 17:15hrs Y phase 66kV class Power Trf-2 Current transformer has flashed over and oil came out. The failed CT has been replaced on 24.03.2015 at 13:15hrs and the Trf has been charged in presence of RT Hassan after conducting the pre-commissioning tests. On the same day at 17:00hrs the commissioned CT has again flashed over and immediately the Trf  has been isolated from power supply. It is confirmed the secondary is not opened and checked the earth integrity and is found ok. Here what would be the reason for the CT failure?
