5.4. Using Eq. (5.23), determine the capacitance to neutral (in p, F /km) of a three-phase line
with three Cardinal ACS R conductors equal laterally spaced 2(j ft apart. What is [he charging
current of the line (in A/km) at 60 Hz and 1 00 kY l i ne to line ?
Solution:
For Cardinal conductors,

r= 2× 12 = 0.0498 ft

2 π ×8.85 ×10−12
Cn= -12 -3
ln 20/(1.196)/24 F/m = 9.276×10 F/m = 9.276×10 µF/km

Ichg = 2π×60×9.276×10-9 × √3 3
A/km = 0.202 A/km

5.7. (a) Derive an equation for the capacitance to neutral in farads per meter of a single-phase
line, taking into account the effect of ground. Use the same numen calculate re as in the
equation derived for the capacitance of a three-phi::se line where the effect of ground is
represented by image charges. (b) Using the derived equation, calculate the capacitance to
neural in farads per meter of a single-phase line composed of two solid circular conductors,
each having a diameter of 0.229 in . The conductors are 10 ft apart and 25 ft above ground.
Compare the result with the value obtained by applying Eq. (5. 10).

Solution:

a: Due to charge on a,b:
