The SIL=(KV LL / Zo), where the V(LL) is the receiving end voltage in kV and Zo is the surge impedance in ohms. when the line is loaded over its SIL, it behaves like a shunt reactor - absorbing Mvar from the system, and when is loaded less its SIL it behaves like a shunt capacitor, supply Mvar back to the system.

So to increase the Surge Impedance Loading (SIL), we need to decrease the the surge impedance of the line, and that can be done by introducing series capacitors (capacitors in series with the transmission line) or shunt capacitors (capacitors in parallel with transmission lines), which means providing Mvar to the system and reducing the Mw.

hopefully that helps

What is characteristics impedance?

The characteristic impedance or surge impedance belongs to a uniform transmission line, usually written Z0. It is the ratio of the amplitudes of a single pair of voltage and current waves propagating along the line in the absence of reflections.


What are the importance of impedance matching in amplifiers?

Two reasons. 1...When impedance of source and destination match, power transfer is maximum. 2...If a long transmission line is involved, the characteristic impedance of the line must match the destination impedance, or reflections will occur on the line.


What is the purpose of having a low impedance for transmission lines?

in order to reduce the transmission line losses we need low impedance...Low impedance also improves power transfer capacity of the line..


Why do you expect an infinity line to have an input impedance equal to the caractarictic impedance?

The characteristic impedance of a transmission line is the ratio of voltage to current of the propagating electrical wave. The line input impedance is the result of the superposition of forward and reverse, or reflected waves when the terminating impedance is not adapted. If the line is infinite, nothing returns from its end and only the forward wave exits. The voltage to current ratio is then the line characteristic impedance. Remark that the same occurs when the line is terminated by its characteristic impedance, the forward wave finds a perfect continuity to the load and no energy is reflected back to the line. A matched line is like an infinite line when looked from the input terminals. Long real lossy lines also act as infinite lines for the energy of the reflected wave is dissipated along the line before reaching the source.

What is surge impedance in power systems?

Actually surge impedance is present in a transmission line due to the capacitance of transmission line. Now this capacitor attends the reactive power of the transmission line to energise its magnetic flux. now due to the flux the impedance will increase and the power is reactive too. due to the impedance loss is more.

What is a Line Commutating Choke?

Line commutating chokes are used to smooth voltage peaks or bridge commutating dips. In effect, this reduces the effects of harmonics on the inverter and power supply. A line commutating choke is necessary to reduce current peaks if line impedance is <1%


What is impedance triangle?

An impedance triangle has resistance (always positive) in the x axis and reactance (at a right angle to resistance) in the y axis. The line that completes this triangle (the hypotenuse) is the absolute value of the impedance.


When a generator of internal impedance and operating at 1gigahertz feeds a load via a coaxial line of characteristic impedance 50 ohm then the voltage wave ratio on the feed line is?

For a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.0, the source impedance, load impedance, and transmission line characteristic impedance must be matched. To calculate actual VSWR, you need to know these three values. You're question only supplies one (50 ohm line). Review wikipedia's writeup on "standing wave ratio" to glean an understanding of what you're asking about.


What is surge divertor?

Surge diverters are normally located on the terminal pole of an overhead line system, and are intended to protect terminal equipment (e.g. transformers, cables, etc.) from sudden surges in voltage. Each of the line conductors is normally connected to earth, via the surge diverter. Under normal circumstances, the internal resistance of the surge diverter is high enough to insulate the line conductor from earth. However, if a voltage surge occurs due, for example, to a lightning strike, then the resistance of the surge diverter will collapse, 'diverting' the surge to earth.
