RECAP
• Electrical energy (power) is essential ingredient for
the Industrial and all round development of any
country.
• It is converted form of energy and generated centrally
in bulk then transmitted economically over long
distances.
EE-504.1 3
On completion of this period, you would be able to
know
OBJECTIVES
•The need of Transmission lines, choice of supply
systems and relative advantages of D.C and A.C
systems.
EE-504.1 4
NEED FOR TRANSMISSION LINE
• Generating stations, transmission lines and distribution
system are the main components of an electric power
system.
• Generating stations and a distribution systems are
connected through transmission lines, which also connect
from one grid to another.
EE-504.1 5
• Electrical power generated at a voltage of 11 to 25 kv,
which is stepped up to the transmission levels in the range
66 to 400 KV or higher.
• The need of distribution systems and transmission lines is
to transmit the electric Power from the generating station to
the Consumer (Industry or Domestic).

Advantages of D.C Transmission:
• Requires only two conductors.
• No inductance & capacitance effect.
• No phase displacement & surge problem.
EE-504.1 22
• No skin effect & less corona loss.
• Reduced interference with communicating circuits.
• Potential stress on the insulation is less.
EE-504.1 23
• Loss due to charging current eliminated.
• Used in under ground cables also.
• Voltage regulation is better & No stabilizer required
EE-504.1 24
Disadvantages of D.C Transmission:
• Power can’t be generated at high voltages
• Voltage can’t be stepped up
• Cost of converting and inverting stations are high
• Requires costly switch gear
EE-504.1 25
Advantages of A.C Transmission:
•Voltage can be stepped up and stepped down.
•Electrical power generated at high voltages.
•Maintenance of substation is easier &cheaper
• Cost of switch gear is less
EE-504.1 26
• More conductor material is required.
• Power loss due to charging current.
• Construction of transmission lines are difficult.
• Synchronizing problems.
Disadvantages of A.C Transmission:
EE-504.1 27
• Due to skin effect line resistance will increase
• Due to corona Spacing between conductors should be
kept more.
• In cables alternating current causes sheath loss
EE-504.1 28
SUMMARY
• The need of transmission and distribution lines.
• Choice of supply system.
• Different types of D.C & A.C systems.
• Advantages & disadvantages of both systems.
