Ferranti Effect causes the receiving end voltage to be more than the sending end voltage. It occurs mainly in long transmission lines when they are lightly loaded. In this condition, the inductance of the lines becomes more resulting in increased receiving end voltage.

The reason for the Ferranti effect is an increase in voltage on the receiving end of a long transmission line to the voltage at the sending end. This increase in voltage usually produces damage on the receiving end.

the receiving end voltage is higher then the sending end voltage due presense of the capacitor and inductor
