    This experiment studies the Ferranti effect, loading, and compensation of transmission lines. For the Ferranti effect, increasing the sending voltage results in a higher receiving voltage. Loading the line reduces the receiving voltage until compensation is added by connecting capacitors, restoring the receiving voltage. The document provides procedures and observations for these three studies.

    STUDY OF UNLOADED AND LOADED TRANSMISSION LINE


    AIM:
    This experiment is to study and understand the following
    1. Ferranti Effect in an unloaded transmission line.
    2. To study the effect of loading of the transmission line
    3. To understand the effect of compensation in transmission lines.

    EXPERIMENTAL SETUP:
    Transmission Line Simulator, Three Phase Supply

    TRANSMISSION LINE SETTINGS:


    1. Set simulation kit of transmission line as per the input data:
    (a) Type of conductor : Twin Moose
    (b) Voltage level: 400kV
    (c) Line length in km: 300
    (d) Number of pi section: 12
    2. Ensure that the load end contractor is off.
    3. Open the graphical user interface in the remote system by invoking the program TLS.exe
    on the desktop.
    4. Set the R L and C values of the the line in each pi section using the switches on the
    panel. (Position of the switch - UP is Connected, DOWN is Disconnected)
    5. Ensure that AUTO MODE is OFF in the remote system. If AUTO MODE is ON the
    system can be controlled only from the remote system.
