    Effect to Transmission Line Reliability

    Hi All, Need help on this. We have an existing Double Circuit 138kV Grid Transmission Line with a length around 100km. Its a looped line where different generation sources and substations are connected at both ends of the 100km line. We are about to connect ("bus-in" or "cut-in") a 70MW...

    Acceptable Insulation Resistance Values for 15 kV Switchgear

    We have newly acquired 15 kV Switchgear and conducted insulation resistance test in all 6 poles (1,3,5,2,4,6). However the result varied significantly when the 2-4-6 poles are tested with respect to ground. Using the 5 kV, Vanguard-Insulation Resistance Tester, the largest insulation resistance...

    Zero Sequence Equiv. Impedance of 2-Autotransformer in parallel

    We have a two-50 MVA autotransformer, 138kV-Wye Grounded/69kV-Wye Grounded/13.8kV-Delta, operating in parallel with %IZ, Zps=10.3%, Zpt=0.2% and Zst=5.5%. Only the 138 & 69kV sides are connected in parallel. I'm in the process of determining the appropriate Zero Sequence Impedance Equivalent...
