Self GMD method is used to evaluate

Self GMD method is used to evaluate:

  1. Capacitance
  2. Inductance
  3. Both of these
  4. None of these

Correct answer: 2. Inductance

Sag in transmission line depends on

Sag in transmission line depends on:

  1. Conductor material
  2. Span of transmission line
  3. Tension in conductors alone
  4. All of these

Correct answer: 4. All of these

Explanation: Sag is defined as the difference in level between points of support and the lowest point on the conductor. Continue reading types of sag and its formulas.

In power transmission line, ground is generally carried out at

In power transmission line, ground is generally carried out at:

  1. Receiving end
  2. Middle of line
  3. Supply end
  4. None of these

Correct answer: 3. Supply end

Shunt conductance in transmission line occurs due to

Shunt conductance in transmission line occurs due to:

  1. Axial current in conductor
  2. Leakage over the insulator
  3. Radial current in conductor
  4. Short circuiting of line by load

Correct answer: 2. Leakage over the insulator
