Basic AC Generation
If a conductor is placed in a magnetic field, and either the
field or the conductor moves, an electromotive force (e.m.f.) is
induced in the conductor.
This effect is called electromagnetic induction.

Electrical Power
Transmission
Electric power transmission, a
process in the delivery of electricity
t o consumer s. Typi cal l y, power
transmission is between the power plant
and a substation near a populated area.
Due to the large amount of power
involved, transmission normally takes
place at high voltage (110 kV or above).
Electricity is usually transmitted over
long distance through overhead power
t r a n s m i s s i o n l i n e s .
6
Electrical Power Distribution
A distribution system consists of all the
facilities and equipment connecting a
transmission system to the customer's
equipment.
A typical distribution system
consist of:
Substations
Distribution Feeder Circuits
Switches
Protective Equipment
Primary Circuits
Distribution Transformers
7
Electric Tariff
Electric Tariff : Charges of using electricity.
The major cost components associated with generation,
transmission and distribution of electricity from the power stations
to end-users are:
- fuel;
- power purchase from independent power producers;
- operation and maintenance;
- procurement of parts and equipment; and
- capital for new infrastructure including finance costs.
8
Electric Tariff
According to Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB),
Most consumers used 30% more electricity than they actually
need.
The more electricity you used, the more you have to pay.
Therefore the simplest way to reduce your electricity bill is to
use electricity efficiently.
However, this does not mean that you need to compromise
your standard of living or to cut down your comfort level.
9
Electric Tariff
How can I reduce my electricity bill?
The simplest way to reduce your electricity bill is to use
electricity efficiently. Follow these quick and easy tips:
-
Switch off appliances and electrical equipment such as lights,
TV, air-conditioners, etc. when not in use.
-
Operate your washing machine at full load without overloading.
-
Iron all your clothes at one time.
10
Domestic tariff applies to consumers occupying private dwellings,
which are not used to carry out any business.
See below for details.

Three-Phase System
In a three phase system the source consists of three
sinusoidal voltages. For a balanced source, the three
sources have equal magnitudes and are phase displaced
from one another by 120 electrical degrees.
A three-phase system is superior economically and
advantage, and for an operating of view, to a single-phase
system. In a balanced three phase system the power
delivered to the load is constant at all times, whereas in a
single-phase system the power pulsates with time.
13
Generation of Three-Phase
Three separate windings or coils with terminals R-R, Y-Y and B-
B are physically placed 120
o
apart around the stator.
14
It has 3 conductor loop
that is R (red), Y (yellow)
and B (blue).
The conductor loop will
move in circle and then cut
off the magnetic flux.
It will produces the
electromagnetic force e.m.f.
in the conductor.
Maximum e.m.f. is when
the conductor loop is 90
with magnetic flux line.

Example 1
A 345 kV, three phase transmission line delivers
500 MVA, 0.866 power factor lagging, to a three
phase load connected to its receiving end terminals.
Assume the load is Y connected
and the voltage at the receiving
end is 345 kV, find:
The load impedance per phase.
The line and phase currents.
The total real and reactive power.
43
Example 2
Repeat example 2 assuming the load is Delta
connected.
44
Power measurement
In a four-wire system (3 phases and a
neutral) the real power is measured using
three single-phase watt-meters.
In a three-wire system (three phases
without neutral) the power is measured
using only two singlephase watt-meters.
- The watt-meters are supplied by
the line current and the line-to-line
voltage.
