RE: Constants of Transmission Lines That Influences their Performance

in #stemng7 years ago

I have been wondering how the receiving end voltage would be larger than the sending end voltage with the voltage drops across the resistance, inductance and capacitance. But now I fully understand the concept after reading about the Ferranti effect. A clear post with detailed illustrations to drive your points home. Keep it up. Thanks for sharing.

Ferranti effect is an interesting phenomenon and it is as result of voltage drop across the inductance of the transmission line being in phase with the sending end voltage, especially during the period of light load. Thanks for making out time to visit my blog.
