This book has been written in response to suggestions given by practising engineers in electrical power systems dealing with high voltage in their every day work as well as taking decisions. The book contains a total of 292 questions arranged in 17 chapters along with 167 line drawings to aid in understanding the material. The questions are those which the author got during his long association with power systems, electrical machines and high voltage engineering ...
Modern power transmission is utilizing voltages between 345 kV and 1150 kV, A.C. Distances of transmission and bulk powers handled have increased to such an extent that extra high voltages and ultra high voltages (EHV and UHV) are necessary. The problems encountered with such high voltage transmission lines exposed to nature are electrostatic fields near the lines, audible noise, radio interference, corona losses, carrier and TV interference, high voltage ...
