Duration 1 Hour

The purpose of this course is to introduce transmission and distribution (T&D) personnel to some of the factors that influence transmission efficiency and power loss. The course explains how T&D systems are designed to minimize power loss and how resistance, capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance can be manipulated to help maintain minimum levels of power loss.

At the conclusion of this course, participants should know what power loss is and how power loss is affected by impedance. They should understand that impedance comes from resistance, capacitive reactance, and inductive reactance.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

Define the terms power loss, inductance, inductive reactance, capacitance, capacitive reactance, resistance, impedance and resonance.

Explain the relationships between voltage, current, and resistance in an electrical circuit.

Explain the relationship of transmission voltage to power loss.

Explain how inductance develops in transmission lines.

Give examples of how inductive reactance can be changed in transmission lines and how capacitive reactance can change in transmission lines.

Identify and explain the factors that determine the resistance of a conductor.

Describe the relationships between impedance, current, and explain the relationship between impedance and power lossvoltage and

Define the term “corona” and explain how corona can be minimized.
