without transpositions
V. S. Subba Rao, B.E., Dr.-lng., A.M.I.E. (India)
Synopsis
Transpositions, although considered necessary to balance the constants of an h.v. overhead transmission
line, are costly and sometimes troublesome in operation; hence the desirability of balancing the line
constants without transpositions.
Possibilities of separately balancing inductances, earth capacitances and mutual capacitances between
phases are considered, by adjusting the equivalent radii of the various phases. As the necessary variations
in equivalent radii are considerable, only bundle conductors can be utilised, with suitable subconductor
spacings. Simple relations are established for the ratio of subconductor spacings of the central and outer
phases of a single-circuit line with symmetric horizontal phase configuration, for inductive and earth-
capacitive balancing, first without considering the effect of earth wires. The effect of earth wires is to
introduce a multiplying factor. These results show that simultaneous balancing of the constants is not
possible for the horizontal arrangement. Balancing of mutual capacitances, though possible, may not
be practicable. The Donau-type double-circuit transmission line with one earth wire, as used in the West
German 38OkV transmission system, is analysed in detail, but the equations are very involved. Simultaneous
balancing of inductances and earth capacitances is theoretically possible, by suitably situated earth wires
and corresponding subconductor spacings. The suitability of this method has to be judged in each case
individually, after working out the details as outlined in the paper. Other methods of balancing some of
the constants, in conjunction with this method, may be required for complete balancing.
3 Balancing of constants
3.1 Balancing of inductances
Eqns. 36, 37 and 38 (Appendix 7.1) give the total
positive-sequence inductances of an untransposed single-
circuit transmission line without earth wires. Eqns. 39, 40
and 41 correspond to those of a double-circuit line. a
These equations show that the real component of the Fig. 1
inductance is a function of the relative arrangement of the Tower configurations

and any unbalance in them is not considered in this paper. Table 1
By equating the real parts of the inductances, the following
relations between the equivalent radii can be derived: Phase arrangement as in
