Why effective AC resistance is more than DC resistance of a
transmission line?

Answer Posted / nayeem( cuet)

When DC current passes through any conductor,the current
uniformly distributed over the whole surface of the
conductor. But AC current not distributed uniformly rather
it has the tendency to concentrate. this is known as skin
effect. For this reason AC resistance is greater than DC
resistance of a transmission line.
