However, ible to represent the same load in terms of series or parallel combinations of its equivalent constant-load resistance and reactance values, as shown in Figures 2.5(b) and 2.5(c), respectively [4].

They are usually used in the bulk power (transmission) substations to reduce the transmission voltage to the subtransmission voltage level. If excitation impedance is neglected, the equivalent circuit of a three-winding transfor- mer can be represented by a wye of impedances, as shown in Figure 2.6(b), where the primary, secondary, and tertiary windings are denoted by P, S, and T, respectively. Note that the common point 0 is fictitious and is not related to the neutral of the system. The tertiary windings of a three-phase and three-winding transformer bank is usually connected in delta and may be used for (1) providing a path for zero-sequence currents, (2) in-plant power distribution, and (3) application of power-factor-correcting capacitors or reactors. The impedance of any of the branches shown in Figure 2.6(b) can be determined by considering the short-circuit impedance between pairs of windings with the third open. Therefore, 22.

Therefore, all impedances, as defined above, should be expressed on the same kilovoltampere base. For three-winding three-phase transformer banks with delta- or wye-connected windings, the positive- and negative-sequence diagrams are always the same. The corresponding zero- sequence diagrams are shown in Figure 3.10. 2.7 AUTOTRANSFORMERS Figure 2.7(a) shows a two-winding transformer. Viewed from the terminals, the same transformation of voltages, currents, and impedances can be obtained with the connection shown in Figure 2.7(b). Therefore, in the autotransformer, only one winding is used per phase, the secondary voltage being tapped off the primary winding, as shown in Figure 2.7(b). The common winding is the winding between the low-voltage terminals, whereas the remainder of the winding, belonging exclusively to the high-voltage Circuit, is called the series winding and, combined with the common winding, forms the series-common winding between the high-voltage terminals. In a sense, an autotransformer is just a normal two-winding transformer connec- ted in a special way. The only structural difference is that the series winding must have extra insulation. In a variable autotransformer the tap is movable. Autotransformers are increasingly used to interconnect two high-voltage transmission lines operating at different voltages. An autotransformer has two separate sets of ratios, namely, circuit ratios and winding ratios. For 4 Series winding a bh Common winding @ o Figure 2.7. Schematic diagram of ideal (stepdown) transformer connected as: (a) two-winding transformer; (6) autotransformer.AUTOTRANSFORMERS 53 circuit ratios, consider the equivalent circuit of an ideal autotransformer (neglecting losses) shown in Figure 2.7(b). Viewed from the terminals, the voltage and current ratios can be expressed as (2.105a) (2.105) (2.105¢) and a= : (2.106) From equation (2.105c), it can be observed that the ratio a is always larger than 1 For winding ratios, consider the voltages and currents of the series and common windings, as shown in Figure 2.7(b). Therefore, the voltage and current ratios can be expressed as (2.107) and fe 2.108: : (2.108a) (2.108b) From equation (2.105¢), (2.109) Therefore, substituting equation (2.109) into equation (2.107) yields =a-1 (2.110) Similarly, substituting equations (2.106) and (2.109) into equation (2.108) simultaneously yields pret (2am)54 STEADY-STATE PERFORMANCE OF TRANSMISSION LINES For an ideal autotransformer, the voltampere ratings of circuits and wind- ings can be expressed, respectively, as (2.112) and s. = ‘windings = (2.113) ‘The advantages of autotransformers are lower leakage reactances, lower losses, smaller exciting currents, and less cost than two-winding transformers when the voltage ratio does not vary too greatly from 1 to 1. For example, if the same core and coils are used as a two-winding transformer and as an autotransformer, the ratio of the capacity as an autotransformer to the capacity as a two-winding transformer can be expressed as ___ Capacity as autotransformer _ Vid, VL, Capacity as two-winding transformer VI, (V, — V,)h, (2.114) a-1 Therefore, maximum advantage is obtained with relatively small difference between the voltages on the two sides (e.g., 161 kV/138 kV, 500 kV/700 kV, and 500 kV/345 kV). Therefore, a large saving in size, weight, the cost can be achieved over a two-windings per-phase transformer, The disadvantages of an autotransformer are that there is no electrical isolation between the primary and secondary circuits and there is a greater short-circuit current than the one for the two-winding transformer. Three-phase autotransformer banks generally have wye-connected main windings, the neutral of which is normally connected solidly to the earth. In addition, it is common practice to include a third winding connected in delta, called the tertiary winding. 2.8 DELTA-WYE AND WYE-DELTA TRANSFORMATIONS The three-terminal circuits encountered so often in networks are the delta and wye’ configurations, as shown in Figure 2.8. In some problems it is hecessary to convert delta to wye or vice versa If the impedances Z,,,, Z,,, and Z., are connected in delta, the equivalent wye impedances Z,, Z,, and Z, are “In Europe it is called the star configurationDELTA-WYE AND WYE-DELTA TRANSFORMATIONS 55 a Zeb 6 Figure 2.8.

A given transmission system comprises all land, conversion structures, and equipment at a primary source of supply, includ- ing lines, switching, and conversion stations, between a generating or receiving point, and a load center or wholesale point. It includes all lines and equipment whose main function is to increase, integrate, or tie together power supply sources. The decision to build a transmission system results from system planning studies to determine how best to meet the system requirements. At this stage, the following factors need to be considered and established: 4. Voltage level. 2. Conductor type and size. 3. Line regulation and voltage control. 4. Corona and losses. 5. Proper load-flow and system stability. 6. System protection. 7. Grounding. 8. Insulation coordination. 9. Mechanical design: (a) Sag and stress calculations. (b) Conductor composition (©) Conductor spacing (4) Insulator and conductor hardware selection. 10. Structural design: (a) Structure types. (b) Stress calculations. The basic configuration selection depends on many interrelated factors, including esthetic considerations, economics, performance criteria, company policies and practice, line profile, right-of-way restrictions, preferred materi als, and construction techniques. Figure 2.9 shows typical compact configu- rations. Figures 2.10~2.13 show typical structures used for EHV transmis- sion systems, Figure 2.14 shows a 345-KV line with a single circuit and wood H-frame, whereas Figure 2.15 shows a 345-kV kine with a double circuit and steel towerveces = | au farevs\ ove ; =| VI + : 1 | WR | eee eile Figure 2.10.

A mil is equal to 1x 10~*in. The cross-sectional area of a wire in square inches equals its area in circular mils multiplied by 0.7854 x 10% For the smaller conductors, up to 211,600 circular mils, the size is usually given by a gage number according to the American Wire Gauge (AWG) standard, formerly known as the Brown and Sharpe Wire Gauge (B&S). Gage sizes decrease as the wire increases in size. The larger the gage size, the smaller the wire. These numbers start at 40, the smallest, which is assigned to a wire with a diameter of 3.145 mils. The largest size is number 0000, written as 4/0, and read as four odds. Above 4/0, the size is determined by cross-sectional area in circular mils. In summary, 1 linear mil = 0,001 inch = 0.0254 millimeter 1 circular mil = area of circle 1 lincar mil in diameter = ta square mils 4a x 10° = 0.7854 x 107° square inch One thousand circular mils is often used as a unit, for exampler, a size given as 250 kemil or MCM refers to 250,000 circular mils, or 250,000 emil. A given conductor may consist of a single strand or several strands. If a single strand, it is solid; if of more than one strand, it is stranded. A solid conductor is often called a wire, whereas a stranded conductor is called a cable. A general formula for the total number of strands in concentrically stranded cables is Number of strands = 3n? - 3n +1 (2.123) where 7 is the number of layers, including the single center strand. In general, distribution conductors larger than 2 AWG are stranded. Insulated conductors for underground distribution or aerial cable lines are classified as cables and usually are stranded. Table 2.3 gives standard conductor sizes. Conductors may be selected based on Kelvin’s law. According to Kelvin’s law,’ “the most economical area of conductor is that for which the annual cost of the energy wasted is equal to the interest on that portion of the capital expense which may be considered as proportional to the weight of the conductor” [5]. Therefore,3CPR | pwa 1000" 100 Annual cost = (2.124)TABLE 2.3 Standard Conductor Sizes Number Solid Size (Cireular of or (AWG or kemil) mils) wires stranded 18 1,620 1 Solid 16 2,580 1 Solid “4 4,110 1 Solid 2 6,530 1 Solid 10 10,380 1 Solid 8 16.510 1 Solid 7 20.820 1 Solid 6 26,250 1 Solid 6 26,250 3 Stranded 5 33,100 3 Stranded 5 33,100 1 Solid 4 41,740 1 Solid 4 41,740 3 Stranded 3 630 3 Stranded 3 52.030 7 Standed 3 52.680 1 Solid 2 66,370 1 Solid 2 66,370 3 Stranded 2 66,370 7 Stranded i 83,690 3 Stranded 1 83,690 7 Stranded 0 (or 1/0) 105,500 7 Stranded 00 (or 2/0) 133,100 7 Stranded 000 (or 3/0) 167,800 1 Stranded 000 (or 3/0) 167,800 2 Stranded 0000 (or 4/0) 211,600 1 Stranded 0000 (or 4/0) 211,600 2 Stranded (0000 (or 4/0) 211,600 19 Stranded 250 250,000 12 Stranded 250 250,000 19 Stranded 300 300,000 12 Stranded 300 300,000 0 Stranded 350 350.000 12 Stranded 350 350.0001 » Stranded 400 400,000 v0 Stranded 450 430,000 19 Stranded 500 500,000 19 Stranded 500 500,000 37 Stranded 600 600,000 37 Stranded 700 700,000 37 Stranded 750 750,000 37 Stranded 800 800,000 37 Stranded 900 900,000 37 Stranded 1,000 1,000,000 37 Stranded66 STEADY-STATE PERFORMANCE OF TRANSMISSION LINES cost of energy wasted in dollars per kilowatt-year™ current per wire R= resistance per mile per conductor cost per pound of conductor w= weight per mile of all conductors percent annual cost of money where C Here, the minimum cost is obtained when 3CPR _ pwa 1000 ~ 100 (2.125) However, in practice, Kelvin's law is seldom used. Instead, the /°R losses are calculated for the total time horizon. ‘The conductors used in the modern overhead power transmission lines are bare aluminum conductors, which are classified as follow: AAC: all-aluminum conductor. AAAC: all-aluminum-alloy conductor. ACSR: aluminum conductor steel reinforced ACAR: aluminum conductor alloy reinforced. 2.11 TRANSMISSION LINE CONSTANTS can be For the purpose of system analysis, a given transmission line represented by its resistance, inductance or inductive reactance, capacitance or capacitive reactance, and leakage resistance (which is usually negligible). 2.12 RESISTANCE The direct-current resistance of a conductor is pl R= Fo (2.126) where p = conductor resistivity conductor length conductor cross-sectional area A In practice, several different sets of units are used in the calculation of the resistance. For example, in the International System of Units (SI units),Jis in meters, A is in square meters, and p is in ohm-meters. Whereas in power systems in the United States, p is in ohm-circular-mils per foot, /is in feet, and A is in circular mils.

Skin effect is a function of conductor size, frequency, and the relative resistance of the conductor material. Tables given in Appendix A provide the de and ac resistance values for various conductors. The resistances to be used in the positive- and negative- sequence networks are the ac resistances of the conductors. 2.13 INDUCTANCE AND INDUCTIVE REACTANCE 2.13.1 Single-Phase Overhead Lines Figure 2.16 shows a single-phase overhead line. Assume that a current flows out in conductor a and returns in conductor 6. These currents cause magnetic field lines that link between the conductors. A change in current causes a change in flux, which in turn results in an induced voltage in the circuit. In an ac citeuit, this induced voltage is called the LX drop. In going around the loop, if R is the resistance of each conductor, the total loss in voltage due to resistance is 2/R. Therefore, the voltage drop in the single-phase line due to loop impedance at 60 Hz is D, v= air + 0.2794 log, Fe) v (2.128) where VD = voltage drop due to line impedance in volts [=line length in miles R= resistance of each conductor in ohms per mileEquipotential lines Magnetic flux lines Figure 2.16.

For any given conductor configuration, the average values of inductance and capacitance can be found by representing the system by one with equivalent equilateral spacing. The “equivalent spacing” is calculated as D, (Das X Dye X De)? (2.135) In practice, the conductors of a transmission line are transposed, as shown in Figure 2.17. The transposition operation, that is, exchanging the conductor positions, is usually carried out at switching stations.

On the other hand, if the obtained Pg and Qp values are multiplied by 3 or the line-to-line values of Vs and Vi are employed, the equations give the three-phase real and reactive power delivered to a balanced load at the receiving end of the line. If, in equation (2.178), all variables are kept constant with the exception of 8, so that the real power delivered, Pg, is a function of 5 only, Py is maximum when 6 = @, and the maximum power’ obtainable at the receiving end for a given regulation can be expressed as Vi (V, Pa. a (GZ) (2.180) where V; and V, are the phase (line-to-neutral) voltages whether the system is single phase or three phase.

The negative sign in equation (2.184) points out that the load is a sink of leading vars,’ that is, going to the load or a source of lagging vars (i.c., from the load to the supply). The total three-phase power transmitted on the three-phase line is three times the power calculated by using the above equations. If the voltages are given in volts, the power is expressed in watts or vars, Otherwise, if they are given in kilovolts, the power is expressed in megawatts or megavars. Ina similar manner, the real and reactive powers for the sending end of a transmission line can be expressed as Vy = cos(@ + 8) (2.185) and sin(@ + 5) (2.186) x Z If, in equation (2.185), as before, all variables are kept constant with the exception of 6, so that the real power at the sending end, Ps, is a function of 6 only, P, is a maximum when 0+ 5 = 180° ‘For many decades, the electrical utility industry has declined to recognize two different kinds of reactive power, leading and lagging vars. Only magneiizing vars ate recognized, printed on varmeter scals plates, bought, and sold. Therefore, in the following sections, the leading ot lagging vars will be referred to as magnetizing vars‘Therefore, the maximum power at the sending end, the maximum input power, can be expressed as Psmax = YS con + Ys ate (2.187) or (2.188) However, if Vs = Ves Poa = (8) Z*R) (2.189) and similarly, the corresponding reactive power at the sending end, the maximum input vars, is given by v2 Qs= 7 sin 0 (2.190) ‘As can be observed, both equations (2.189) and (2.190) are independent of V, voltage, and equation (2.190) has a positive sign this time. 2.17.2 Percent Voltage Regulation The voltage regulation of the line is defined by the rise in voltage when full load is removed, that is, IVs1—1¥, Percentage of voltage regulation = Mle x 100 (2.191) A or [Vel = IVa.ec!

Its equivalent circuit is shown in Figure 2.26(). Sometimes, it may be required to preserve the electrical identity of the two lines, as shown in Figure 2.27. The mutual impedance Z,, can be in either line and transferred to the other by means of a transformer that has a 1:1 turns ratio. This technique is also applicable for three-phase lines.
