The shunt conductance is due to leakage currents flowing across insulators and air. As leakage current is considerably small compared to nominal current, it is usually neglected, and therefore, shunt conductance is normally not considered for

the transmission line modeling.

Why is leakage conductance negligible in underground transmission lines or not What about underground system?

Leakage conductance is generally negligible in underground transmission lines because these lines are insulated and buried in soil, which limits moisture and other environmental factors that could cause leakage currents. The insulation materials used in underground systems are designed to withstand high voltages and prevent current loss. Additionally, the surrounding soil typically has a higher resistivity compared to other mediums, further reducing the potential for leakage. Consequently, underground systems are more efficient in minimizing energy losses compared to overhead lines.


Why conductance is ignored in transmission lines?

Conductance is ignored in short circuit studies because the inductance of the line is the dominant value. Conductance may not be ignored in stability studies.

What are the materials added in electrical overhead lines?

Overhead electrical lines are usually made of aluminum, and some have a steel strand added which is used to give the conductor more strength (not to carry current).


Why velocity of wave propagation is same for all overhead lines?

The velocity of wave propagation in overhead power lines is primarily determined by the line's electrical characteristics, specifically its capacitance and inductance, which are relatively consistent across different lines. This velocity is a function of the square root of the ratio of inductance to capacitance (v = 1/√(LC)). Because these properties are influenced by the physical design and materials used in overhead lines, the propagation speed tends to be similar across various lines, regardless of their specific configurations or lengths. Thus, for practical purposes, it can be considered constant for overhead transmission lines.


What are contour lines used for?

Contour lines enable us to see changes in elevation using an overhead map


Are overhead power lines insulated?

Overhead power lines are insulated from ground, typically using strings of glass or ceramic insulators. The wire itself is bare, though - it does not have insulation on it. There are many different types of overhead power line, but I'm not aware of any that actually have insulation.


Why overhead transmission lines would be more economical than underground transmission lines in high voltage transmission?

Overhead wires do not require insulation, and it is easier to plant poles than dig miles of trenches.
