PRINCIPLE OF GENERATION‚ TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION OF HIGH AC VOLTAGES INTRODUCTION The potential benefits of electrical energy supplied to a number of consumers from a common generating system were recognized shortly after the development of the ‘dynamo’‚ commonly known as the generator. The first public power station was put into service in 1882 in London (Holborn). Soon a number of other public supplies for electricity followed in other developed countries. The early systems

Global Transmission Tower Market 2014-2018 A transmission tower is the main supporting unit of overhead transmission lines and is known by different names in various parts of the world. In the UK and some parts of Europe‚ it is known as an electricity pylon‚ and in Canada‚ it is called a hydro tower. The design of a transmission tower involves three disciplines of engineering‚ civil‚ mechanical‚ and electrical‚ as it serves the purpose of supporting electrical wires that are heavy and are required

Transients on Transmission Lines Wang Wei weiwan@kth.se 1/12/2011 1. Introduction Project 1 is about fault currents and transients on transmission lines that may occur due a lightning strike to an overhead line. In this case the transmission line is energized from one side and it’s other side is terminated in a Gas Insulated Substation‚ see Fig. 1. Several issues will be investigated from this system such as transient overvoltages and short-circuit currents. Fig.1 Transmission line model

March 2011. The power sector added record conventional capacities of 12‚160 MW during 2010-11. However‚ despite the Indian power sector having shown substantial growth during the post-independence era‚ the sector has been ailing from serious functional problems during the past few decades. In 2010-11‚ India faced power deficit of 10 per cent and peak demand shortage of 13.3 per cent. In this backdrop‚ Power sector reforms were first initiated in India in 1992 by the Ministry of Power (MoP) to invite
