Why is a sag provided in the transmission line?

Sag is provided in transmission lines in order to lessen the tension of the transmission lines. Sag literally means to be bend in shape. In overhead transmission lines , the difference in level between points of supports (towers or utility poles) and the lowest point on the conductor is called a sag. Explanation: While erecting an overhead line, it is very important that the conductors are under safe tension. If the conductors are too much stressed between the supports ( towers, utility poles), then the stress on the conductors may reach to an unsafe level and the conductor may break due to excessive pressure ( i,e tension). in order to permit safe tension in the conductors, the conductors ( i.e the transmission lines) are not fully stretched but are allowed to have a dip or a sag.


Describe the difference between insulator and conductor?

Insulators prevent electric current from flowing, while conductors allow it to flow freely.


Are scissors conductors?

They are Conductors, not much for insulation though. Differences between conductors and insulators? Conductors let energy such as electricity .


What is ruling span?

A line or section of a line between rigid points of attachment, on which conductors are free to move longitudinally at the supports, it is obtained by adding the average span 2/3 the difference between the maximum and average span ...

What is the use of hyperbolic functions?

Hyperbolic functions can be used to describe the position that heavy cable assumes when strung between two supports.


Is three phase transmission line is example of bundle conductor?

'Bundled' conductors describe a line in which two or more conductors are supported from the same insulator chain. In the UK, 275-kV transmission lines typically use two conductors per line, and 400-kV transmission lines typically use four conductors per line. The purpose of bundling conductors is to spread the electric stress on the conductors (e.g. for four conductors, the same amount of electric flux will be 'shared' between the four conductors, rather than concentrated on the surface of one conductor).


Why the spacing between the conductors of same phase is greater as compared to spacing between different phase conductors in double circuit lines?

I think you mean spacing between line conductors, rather than phase conductors. If there is a greater spacing between line conductors in one circuit, compared with anothercircuit, then the two circuits are operating at different voltages.


Does capacitance exists between two current carrying conductors?

Capacitance exists between any two conductors, current carrying or not.


How much must be the distance between two conductors of 11kv line?

What is relation between voltage and conductors?

Your question is unclear. But, if you are asking what the relationship between voltage and the distance between conductors is, then the higher the voltage, the greater the distance must be.


The relationship between resistance and conductors is?

ALL resistance are conductors. just the magnitude value changes
