why do we use bundle conductors instead of using single
conductor of larger size for high voltage transmission?
Answer Posted / sandeep samant
It is due to skin effect of ac current. The most of ac current flows through the outer(circumference) part of conductor. So we use bundle conductor to increase the circumference area of conductor. it increases the current carrying capacity of conductor.

What is the efficiency during maximum power transfer?
A commercial Building is designed with 14th floor levels with indoor substation of three phase transformer with rated capacity of 1000 Kva.The transformer delivered 65% of its rated capacity at 0.67 power factor lagging.Because of low power factor, the power customer was penalized and certain cost was charged accordingly based on every point percentage lower than 85%.This situation may repeatedly happen on the succeding energy bills of power customer.The power customer is desired to improve its historical power factor of 0.67 lagging and no further penalty be impose by the local power company on the next bill.
