I have question regarding transmiss

I have question regarding transmiss

I have question regarding transmiss

(OP)
I have question regarding transmission line here...
Is it possible to transfer/shift power in line A to line B in transmission line where line A and B are parallel?
Assume that impedance in line A is severely loaded where the impedance is 2 times impedance in line B.
Or is there any other options to improve power in line A???

Your inputs will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

RE: I have question regarding transmiss

Yes it is possible. You can use series capacitors to compensate for the inductive reactance of the higher impedance line and reduce its overall impedance, or you can install a quadrature booster to force the power in a particular direction if its an interconnected system perhaps with multiple generation infeeds.

RE: I have question regarding transmiss

Series reactors could be used to increase the impedance of the overloaded line if the limitations are thermal. Low impedance underground cable in parallel with higher impedance overhead lines sometimes use this approach. The approaches outlined by Marmite are generally used for longer lines with stability or voltage angle limitations.
