    Question: 1 Marks (8)

    Briefly explain different types of over voltages that impinge on the high voltage power network
    during its service life.

    Question: 2 Marks (16)


    Power of 2000MW is to be transmitted from a coal fired power plant located at site A over 500
    km distance to site B. Using ac 220KV, 500KV and 765KV alternatives suggest the number of
    circuits required in each case.

    (i) Also calculate total power loss per kilometer using average line parameters tabulated below
    assuming the line operation under stability limit of δ=30o
    (ii) ) Discuss the impacts of these results comparing different alternatives to transmit power to
    this load center.
