Chapter 1
Power System - An introduction
Electrical energy is the most convenient and widely used form of energy. Electrical energy is
more efficient to generate, transport and to use compared with other forms of energy. With the
invention of power transformers, electrical energy can be transformed from one voltage level to
other without much difficulty. This enabled long distance transmission of electrical energy at
high voltages with reduced transmission losses.
The generating stations are usually located near to the source of power required to drive the
prime movers. These locations often geographically well separated from the load centers or
consumers. The power generated from the generating centers are transmitted at high voltages to
the load centers where it is stepped down to low voltages suitable for use.
1.1 Power system divisionsModern power system can be broadly divided into four areas:
Generation Transmission Distribution Loads
A basic simple power system layout is shown in Figure 1.1.
1.1.1 Generation
Major power generation uses hyro, nuclear and thermal (coal and petro fuels). Turbines are
driven by these energy sources are known as prime movers and are used to drive the generators.
Generators generate 3 phase electrical power at 11 or 25 kV voltage level. Transmission of
power at the generation voltage for long distance in not feasible due to high transmission losses
and several other reasons. Therefore the generated power is stepped up to transmission voltage
usually 230 or 400 kV.

1.2. POWER IN SINGLE PHASE AC CIRCUITS 9
1.2 Power in single phase AC circuits
Consider a single phase AC circuit shown in Figure 1.2. The instantaneous power is given by,
Figure 1.2: Power in single phase AC circuits.
p(t) = v(t)i(t) = Vmax cos(t + v) Imax cos(t + i) (1.1)
Using the trigonometrical identity,
cos A cos B =1
2[cos (A B) + cos (A + B)] (1.2)
we get
p(t) =1
2VmaxImax [cos (v i) + cos (2t + v + i)]
=1
2VmaxImax {cos(v i) + cos [2 (t + v) (v i)]}
=1
2VmaxImax [cos (v i) + cos2 (t + v)cos(v i) + sin 2 (t + v)sin(v i)]
= V Icos [1 + cos 2 (t + v)] + V Isin sin2(t + v) (1.3)
where V = Vmax2
and I = Imax2
are the rms values of voltage and current and = v i. In(1.3) the first term represents the power flow into the circuit and the second term represents the
power absorbed during charging and discharging of the reactive elements in the circuit. Now let
us consider the first term,
pr = V Icos + V Icos cos2(t + v) (1.4)
If we take the average power over a cycle the second term which is the oscillating power in the
circuit disappears leaving the average power as,
P = V Icos (1.5)

10 CHAPTER 1. POWER SYSTEM - AN INTRODUCTION
The term V Icos is the active or real power, cos is the power factorV I is the apparent power.The second term of (1.3) is,
pq = V Isin sin2(t + v) (1.6)
This is the power consumed during charging and discharging of the reactive elements in the
circuit. If we take the average value of this power it will be zero. The amplitude of this oscillating
power is called the reactive power and is given by,
Q = V Isin (1.7)
Even though P and Q have the same units, to distinguish P is expressed in watts and Q in var.
1.3 Complex power
Consider the phasor diagram shown in Figure 1.3 in which current lags the voltage by an angle
since the load is inductive. If we take the complex product of the vectors,
Figure 1.3: Complex power in AC circuits.
V I = V I(v i) = V I
= V Icos +V Isin (1.8)
Using (1.5) and (1.7) we can write (1.8) as,
S = V I = P +Q (1.9)
Equation (1.9) is a complex equation and the power represented by it is called complex power.
For leading power factors Q is negative and for lagging power factors Q is positive. Equation(1.9) can be diagrammatically represented using power triangle as shown in Figure 1.3.

From (1.11), for star connected system the line voltage is

1.4.2 Delta or connection
A three phase delta connected system is shown in Figure 1.7. The currents IA, IB and IC are line
currents and the currents IAB, IBC and ICA are phase currents. In delta connected system linevoltage and the phase voltage are equal. Using the phasor diagram shown in Figure 1.8 the line
currents in terms of phase currents are given by,

p3phase = 3VphaseIphase cos = P3phase (1.15)
From (1.15) we can see that even though the individual single phase power is pulsating the three
phase power is constant. The three phase reactive and apparent power is given by,
Q3phase = 3VphaseIphase sin
S3phase = 3VphaseIphase = P3phase +Q3phase (1.16)
Three phase power in terms of line quantities is given by,
P3phase =
3VlineIline cos
Q3phase =
3VlineIline sin (1.17)
1.6 Three phase power measurement using two wattmeter method
Three phase power can be measured by three single phase wattmeters having current coils in
each line and potential coils connected across the given line and any common junction. Since
this common junction is completely arbitrary, it may be placed on one of the three lines, in which
case the wattmeter connected in that line will indicate zero power because its potential coil has no
voltage across it. Hence that wattmeter can be dispensed with, and three phase power by means

1.6. THREE PHASE POWER MEASUREMENT USING TWO WATTMETER METHOD 15
of only two single phase wattmeters having a common potential junction on any of the three lines
in which there is no current coil. This method is valid for both balanced and unbalanced circuits
with either the load or the source unbalanced.
Consider the circuit arrangement for the power measurement as shown in Figure 1.9
Figure 1.9: Two-wattmeter method circuit diagram.
Consider the phasor diagram shown in Figure 1.10 The wattmeter readings are given by,

1.7 Power transformers
Transformers are used at different stages in a power system. The generated voltage usually at 11
or 25 kV is raised to transmission voltage of 230 - 750 kV and at the receiving end voltage is
reduced to distribution level 11 - 33 kV and further reduced to 400-220 V for house hold use.
1.7.1 Equivalent circuit of a transformer
The equivalent circuit of a transformer with primary voltage Vp and secondary voltage Vs is givenin Figure 1.11 In the figure, Rp and Rs are the resistances of primary and secondary windings
Figure 1.11: Transformer equivalent circuit
and Xp and Xs is the leakage reactances. Rc and Xm indicate the no-load loss and magnetis-ing components of the transformer. Ep and Es are the induced emfs in primary and secondary
windings. The voltage transformation ratio of the transformer is given by k = EpEs
. The equiv-
alent circuit can be simplified by moving the parallel branch to the supply side and moving the
impedances to primary or secondary side. While moving the voltage, current and impedances
the voltage transformation need to be included by properly transforming the quantities. Figure
1.12(a) shows the equivalent circuit referred to primary side. Further simplification in the equiv-
alent circuit is made by neglecting the no-load branch as shown in Figure 1.12(b). Figure 1.13

shows the equivalent circuit referred to secondary side.

1.7.2 Three phase transformersThree phase power transformers can be either connected in star or delta connection. Generally
transformer windings are connected internally in Y or formation. The large transformers areusually constitute of three single phase transformer banks and connected externally in Y or configuration. The different combinations are Y Y, , Y and Y. Depending onthe voltage level and other requirements a particular configuration is chosen.
Three phase transformers are represented using per phase equivalent circuits. The no-load
shunt path is neglected and only the winding resistance and leakage reactances are considered

while deriving the per phase equivalent. When working with Y configuration, the side isrepresented by the equivalent Y formation and the neutrals are joined and the per phase equiva-lent is worked out. The equivalent Y connected impedance is given by ZY = Z/3. The per
phase equivalent circuits referred to primary and secondary sides are given in 1.14(a) and (b).
Figure 1.14: Per phase equivalent circuit.
1.8 Auto transformers
A two winding transformer can be connected as an autotransformer as shown in Figure 1.15. Theworking principle of the auto transformer is the same as the two winging transformer except that
the former is electrically connected. The autotransformer has an increased power rating when
compared with two winding transformer. The voltage, current and the power rating advantage
over two wing transformer are given by,

The equivalent per unit impedance of the two winding and the auto transformer are related by,
Zau =Z2wind
Padv(1.20)
The advantage of using the autotransformer is that for the same power rating the autotransformer
requires less copper. But the insulation cost will be more because both windings need same level
of insulation.

1.8. AUTO TRANSFORMERS 19
Figure 1.15: Auto-transformer.
1.8.1 Tap changing transformers
In order to control the voltage at different levels of the power system and also to control the
reactive power flow, transformers are equipped with tap changing facility. Generally the tap
changing facility will provide a voltage variation
5 to
10 % of the rated voltage. The
primary or the secondary windings are provided with taps to alter the transformation ratio kthereby altering the voltage. Based on the tap changing operation transformers are classified as
off load tap changing transformers and on load tap changing transformers (OLTCs). Off load tap
changing transformers require the transformer to be switched off while changing the taps and are
used where frequent voltage adjustments are not required. OLTCs permit tap changing without
switching off the load. Generally OLTCs operate under closed loop conditions which help to
maintain the voltage irrespective of changes in load variations.
Consider the power system shown in Figure 1.16, the generation voltage VG is stepped upthrough OLTC and transmitted and at the receiving end it is stepped down by OLTC to the load

voltage at the receiving end is Vr. The tap positions of the OLTCs are Ts and Tr. The voltagesand impedances are referred to the high voltage side. The phasor diagram of the system is shownin Figure 1.17. From the phasor diagram we can write,

Per unit system and load modeling
2.1 Per unit systemPower system operates at different voltage levels from generation to the distribution end. It
will be difficult to analyse the power system with different voltages especially when dealing
with impedances. To overcome this difficulty per unit (pu) system is used. The power system
variables are expressed as a fraction or multiples of base quantities. While working with pu
system the voltage differences are eliminated. The per unit quantity of any variable is defined as,
Quantity in pu =actual quantity
base value of the quantity
%pu = Quantity in pu 100% (2.1)For example,
power pu =actual power
base power
voltage pu =actual voltage
base voltage
To arrive the pu values of voltage, current, volt-amperes and impedance, it is only necessary
to choose any of the two values as base values and other base values will get fixed accordingly.
Generally the power of the largest generating unit in MVA and maximum operating voltage in
kV are selected as base values. It is not a hard and fast rule, depending on convenience the base
values can be selected. If we select Base kVA and Base kV, other base quantities are given by,
base current IBase(A) =Base kVA
Base kV
base impedance ZBase() =Base kV

Generally in power system analysis we work with per-phase models and equivalent circuits.
But for the power system line voltages and 3 phase power will be specified. The following
expressions relate these two.
pu phase voltage(in line-neutral Base) = pu line voltage(in line-line Base)
pu phase kVA(in per phase Base kVA) = pu 3 phase kVA(in 3 phase Base kVA)
2.1.1 Changing the base ofpu quantities
Generally the manufacturers specify the equipments pu impedance, but these pu impedances of
all equipments need not be on the same base values. We need to convert them to the common
selected base for the analysis. The pu impedance is given by,
pu impedance =

2.2 Power flow between two nodes
To analyse the power flow between two nodes, consider the nodes 1 and 2 as shown in Figure 1.1
If12 = V1V2, then power leaving from 1 to 2 is given by,

Q12 = g (|V1||V2| sin 12) b|V1|2 |V1||V2| cos 12 (2.4)

2.2. POWER FLOW BETWEEN TWO NODES 25
Power arriving at node 2 from 1 is given by,

|V1||V2| (cos 12 sin 12) |V2|2= (g b) |V1||V2| cos 12 |V2|2 (|V1||V2| sin 12) (2.5)
The real and reactive power are given by,
P21 = g|V1||V2| cos 12 |V2|2 b (|V1||V2| sin 12) (2.6)
Q12 = g (|V1||V2| sin 12) b|V1||V2| cos 12 |V2|2 (2.7)
The complex power lost between the nodes is given by,
Sloss = S12 S21 = (g b) |V1|2 + |V2|2 2|V1||V2| cos 12 (2.8)If we neglect the resistance between the nodes and the reactance is given by X then g = 0 andb = 1
X. The real power transferred is given by substituting in (1.3) and (1.6).
P12 = P21 =|V1||V2| sin 12
X(2.9)
The reactive power transferred is given by substituting in (1.4) and (1.7).

Q21 = |V1

From (1.9) the direction of real power flow depends on the value of 12. If V1 leads V2 powerflows from node 1 to 2 otherwise from 2 to 1. 12 is known as power angle. The average reactivepower transferred is given by,
Qave =Q12 + Q21
2=
|V1|2 |V2|22X
(2.11)
Equation (1.11) shows that the reactive power flows node with high voltage magnitude to the low
voltage node and it is independent of12. When V1 = V2, there will be no average reactive powertransferred and the reactive power losses are supplied equally from both ends.
2.2.1 The static stability limit
Differentiating (1.3) with respect to 12 and equating to zero we get,
dP12d12

IfR = 0, the stability limit occurs at 12 =2
and the maximum power transferred is given by
P12max =
|V1||V2|X
if|V1| |V2| = V, then P12max = |V|2
X(2.13)
Equation (1.13) shows that high voltage is required to transmit power over long distances with
high X.
2.2.2 Effect of reactive power
Because of inductive nature of transformers, transmission lines, induction motors and other in-
ductive loads large amount of inductive power is consumed. Even though reactive power does
not produce any useful work, still it has to be generated and transmitted which produces lossesand other economic difficulties. The best way to get rid of this is to cancel the reactive power
by generating capacitive reactive power at the point where negative inductive reactive power is
generated. For this purpose capacitor banks and other equipments like synchronous condensers
and static var compensators are used through out the network.
2.3 Load modeling
Power system loads consists of motors, heaters, lighting and electronic equipments. Most system
loads are a mixture of different types. The loads vary in size (watts and vars), symmetry, daily
and seasonal variations, short term fluctuations (e.g, welding machines, wood chip mills). Someare nonlinear loads (e.g, rectifiers and other power conversion equipments) which may produce
significant harmonic currents. Most loads vary with voltage and frequency.
2.3.1 Variation with voltage
Let the variation in power be described by
P = k|V|n (2.14)Consider a small change in voltage magnitude d|V|. The relative change is given by d|V|
V. A first
order Taylors series approximation gives the change in power as,
dP dPd|V|d|V| = kn|V|
n1 d|V| = n P|V| d|V| (2.15)
Hence the relative change in power is given by,
dP
P nd|V||V| (2.16)
A similar expression can be arrived for reactive power Q the value of exponent n may differ.

2.3.3 Models of loads
Constant impedance load
Admittance Y = 1Z
= g + b = constant (b is negative for inductive load). S = Y |V|2 andP = g|V|2 and Q = b|V|2, therefore the value ofn in (1.16) is 2, ie., a 1% drop in voltageresults in 2% drop in both P and Q.
Incandescent lighting load
The resistance of the light globes increases significantly with increasing operating temperature,
therefore the exponent n < 2 in (1.14) and (1.16). A value ofn = 1.6 is typical. Hence a dropof1% drop in voltage results in a 1.6% drop in P (drop in Q is negligible).
Fluorescent lighting load
The P, |V| relationship is more complicated than for the incandescent lamps but in the absenceof better information, n = 1.6 may be assumed.
Synchronous motor load
The speed of the motor is not affected by small changes of voltage but is proportional to fre-
quency. However, when the voltage drops too low the motor loses synchronism. As the me-
chanical load is unaffected by voltage, the electrical power P may also be assumed to remain
constant. Therefore the exponent n 0 in (1.14) and (1.16). Variation of P with frequencydepends on how the mechanical load varies with speed.
Induction motor load
Induction motor torque-slip characteristics give torque T s|V|2 where s is the slip, but thetorque is actually a characteristic of the mechanical load. For example, if T is constant, thes |V|2. In practice s < 0.05 at rated conditions. For s = 0.05, and we increase the voltageby 1%. Then the new slip is given by 0.05 1.012 = 0.049. Speed of the motor is proportional
7/27/2019 48572 PCT Lecture Notdfes.pdf
28/115
28 CHAPTER 2. PER UNIT SYSTEM AND LOAD MODELING
to (1 s), therefore with constant T the mechanical power is proportional to (1 s). Hencethe mechanical power increases by the ratio 10.049
10.05 , i.e., the mechanical power increases by only0.105% for 1% voltage increase.
For an ideal motor (1s) is equal to the theoretical efficiency, hence the improved efficiencyat lower slip exactly compensates for the increased mechanical power, so that the electrical power
P remains constant in this ideal case. This is not quite so far a practical motor, particularly asthe torque varies with speed but we would generally be justified in assuming that the real power
P is independent of voltage for an induction motor. So n = 0 in (1.14) and (1.16) for P. This isnot true for the reactive power Q which increases with voltage (n > 0)

Chapter 3
Transmission line Impedance
The transmission line is characterised by its resistance, inductance and capacitance. The induc-
tance of the transmission line is the effect related to the emf induced on the conductor due to
changing flux caused by changing current. The capacitance is due to the charge created on the
conductors due to per unit potential difference between them.
Aluminium is used as conductor material because of lower weight, cheapness and large di-
ameter for the same resistance when compared with copper. Higher diameter reduces conduc-
tor surface voltage gradient which helps to reduce corona loss. Generally stranded aluminium
conductors are reinforced by steel is used. Aluminium alloy helps to improve the mechanical
properties of the conductor.
3.1 Resistance of the transmission lineThe transmission line resistance causes power loss Ploss during transmission. The effective re-sistance R of the conductor is given by,
R =Ploss|I|2 (3.1)
where I is the rms value of the current. The effective resistance will be equal to the dc resistanceof the conductor, if the current distribution is uniform across the conductor. With alternating
current the current distribution will not be uniform due to skin effectand this will increase the ac
resistance of the conductor. The dc resistance of the conductor is given by,
Rdc =lA
(3.2)
The resistance of the conductor varies with the temperature as,
R2 = R1T + t2T + t1
(3.3)
where R1 is the resistance at a temperature of t01 C, R2 is the resistance at a temperature of t
02 C
and T is the temperature constant whose value depends on the material of the conductor (T

L2 = 2 107 ln 1r2

lines conductors are made up of strands. Stranded conductors offer better mechanical properties
and handling qualities. Let us consider a single phase system with stranded conductors p andq. Let the conductor p have n strands and the conductor qhave m strands and each strand havean equal diameter as shown in Figure 1.8. If the total current is I, then current per strand in p

3.7 Bundled conductors
Conductors are bundled together as two or three or four depending on the requirement as shown
in Figure 1.9 inEHVtransmission. Bundling of conductors offers have many advantages. Mainly
it reduces the inductance thereby the reactance of the transmission line which will increase the
power transfer capacity of the line. Also, bundling reduces the surface voltage gradient which
will in turn reduce corona loss, radio interference etc.,. The distance between the conductors is
maintained by using spacer-dampers.

Transmission line capacitance
Capacitance of a transmission line is due to the potential difference between two conductors
separated by a dielectric medium usually air. Because of the alternating nature of the voltage
applied, there will be charging and discharging currents through the line capacitance. We can
compute the capacitance of the transmission line using Gausss law for electric field which states
the total electric charge within a closed surface equals the total electric flux emerging from the

4.4. THE EFFECT OF EARTH ON LINE CAPACITANCE 45
4.4 The effect of earth on line capacitance
The presence of earth affects the electric field of the conductor. Let us consider a single conduc-
tor, when it is charged the earth acquires equal and opposite charge. The electric flux from theconductor to ground will be perpendicular to the earths equipotential surface. In order to model
this, the effect of earth can be replaced by a fictitious conductor of the same size and shape of the
over head conductor lying below the surface of the earth at a depth equal to the height of the con-
ductor above the earth. Now if the earth is removed, the electric flux between the fictitious and
actual conductor represents the effect of the earth with earths surface as equipotential surface.
The fictitious conductor is referred as image conductor.
Let us calculate the capacitance of a 3 phase unsymmetrical system as shown in Figure 1.4.
If the charges on the conductors be qa, qb and qc then the charge on the image conductors be

Cn =20
ln GMDr
ln
3H12H23H313H1H2H3
F/m (4.23)With reference to (1.20) and (1.23), we can see that due to the effect of earth the capacitance
increases. Generally the conductors are situated at a height well above the ground, so the effect
of earth can be neglected. But in the case of unbalanced system calculations the earth effect will
be important.
4.5 Capacitance of bundled conductors
As in the case of inductance calculations for bundled conductors described in Section 1.7, we
can find the capacitance as,
Cn =20

work out the capacitance similar to the inductance calculations in Section 1.8 as,

Transmission line model
The transmission line parameters evaluated for unit length of the line is used to arrive at the
transmission line model between sending and receiving ends. The line models are worked out
based on the length of the transmission line.
5.1 Short transmission line model
This model is used to study lines with length less than 80 km. Due to short length, the value of
capacitance is usually small and can be neglected without sacrificing the accuracy. We include
only line resistance and inductance in the model as shown in Figure 1.1 If l is the length of the
Figure 5.1: Short transmission line model
line, rl the resistance per unit length and Ll inductance per unit length. Then the net impedanceis given by,
Zl = Rl +Xl = l (rl +Ll) (5.1)
If Vs and Vr are the per phase voltages at sending and receiving ends respectively, the sendingend voltage is given by,
Vs = Vr + ZlIr and Is = Ir (5.2)

transmission line is given by,

|Vrfullload| 100% (5.4)
and the transmission line efficiency is given by,
% =receiving end power
sending end power 100% = Pr
Ps 100% (5.5)
5.2 Medium length line model or nominal model
This model is suitable for representing transmission line of length from 80 km to 250 km. The
total capacitance of the line is divided into two equal parts and each part is lumped as single ca-
pacitance and added at sending and receiving ends as shown in Figure 1.3. If Cis the capacitanceof the line per unit length and l the line length, then the shunt admittance is given by,
Y = (g +C) l (5.6)
where g is the conductance which is usually neglected. At the receiving end,
Il = Ir +Y

At the sending end,
Vs = Vr + ZlIl (5.8)

accurate results. Line models should be worked out with distributed parameters.

Figure 5.4: Model of a long transmission line
Let us consider a small section A B of length x of a long transmission line of length l at a
distance x from the receiving end as shown in Figure 1.4. The series impedance per unit lengthbe z = r +L and the shunt admittance be y = g +C. Voltage at A is given by,
V(x + x) = Vx + zxI(x)

v(t, x) =
2A1ex cos(t + x) +
2A2e
x cos(t x)= v1(t, x) + v2(t, x) (5.29)
The voltage at a point along the transmission line is the sum of two waves v1 and v2. As thedistance x increases v1 increases and it is called incident wave. v2 decreases as x increases andis called reflected wave. They behave like traveling waves along the line.

6.3 Fault analysis using Zbus matrix
The fault analysis procedure given in the previous numerical example is suitable only for small
networks. It will become more complex if we have to deal with large networks. For large
networks fault analysis is made simple and straight forward using the Zbus matrix method.To analyse the fault we need the impedance matrix of the system. We represent all the
voltages and impedances in pu values. The generator voltages are given by the voltage behindthe reactance Xd or X
d or Xd. The transmission line is represented by equivalent -model. The
load is modelled as equivalent constant impedance as given by ZLi =|Vi0|2SL
, where Vi0 is the
pre-fault voltage at load bus and SL is the complex load value.Let us consider a n bus system and a three phase fault is initiated at the kth bus. If the pre-fault
voltages of all buses are arranged as a vector given by,
Vbus0 = [V10, V20, , Vk0, , Vn0]T (6.8)

From Thevenins circuit we have,

Equating (1.16) and (1.20) we have,
Ikfault =Vk0
Zkk + Zfault(6.18)
To get the fault current we need only Zkk and Zfault. Now the fault voltage at the ith bus is given
by,
Vifault = Vi0 ZikIkfault= Vi0 Zik
Zkk + ZfaultVk0 (6.19)
With all fault bus voltages known we can find the current between bus i and j as,
Iijfault =Vifault Vjfault

where zij is the impedance between buses i and j.

Chapter 7
Symmetrical components
Method of symmetrical components helps to reduce the complexity involved in analysing un-
balanced polyphase system. In a balanced, unbalanced fault conditions can lead to unbalanced
voltages and currents.
Using Fortescues theorem, an unbalanced system of n phases can be resolved into n sys-tems of balanced phasors of equal length and these phasors are called symmetrical components
of original phasors. The analysis of unbalanced system using symmetrical components involves,
finding the responses of individual elements of the symmetrical components and applying super-
position principle to get the overall response.
7.1 Basics of symmetrical components
Using symmetrical components three unbalanced phasors of 3 phase system can be resolved into
3 balanced system of phasors.
i) Positive sequence: Displaced by 1200, equal in magnitude and has the same phase se-quence as the unbalanced system.
ii) Negative sequence: Displaced by 1200, equal in magnitude and has opposite phase se-quence as the unbalanced system.
iii) Zero sequence: Zero phase displacement and equal in magnitude.
The symmetrical components are diagrammatically represented in Figure 2.1. The superscripts
1, 2, 0 are used to represent positive, negative and zero sequences respectively. Let us define avector operator a = 11200 which performs 1200 counterclockwise rotation, so that,
a = 11200 = 0.5 +0.866a2 = 12400 = 0.5 0.866
so that 1 + a + a2 = 0 (7.1)

Using the above we can define positive sequence as,
V1a = V1a 0
0 = V1aV1b = V
1a 240
0 = a2V1aV1c = V
1a 120
0 = aV1a (7.2)
Similarly we can define the negative sequence as,
V2a = V2a 00 = V2aV2b = V
2a 120
0 = aV2aV2c = V
2a 240
0 = a2V2a (7.3)
The zero sequence is defined as,
V0a = V0b = V
0c (7.4)
We can get back the original unbalanced system from the symmetrical components as follows:
Va = V0
a+ V1
a+ V2

From (2.12) for ungrounded three phase system the sum of the phase currents is zero hence no
zero sequence current. But for grounded system zero sequence current flows between neutral
and ground.
Apparent 3 phase power can be expressed as symmetrical components as,
S3 = VabcTIabc

Consider a section of a transmission line shown in Figure 2.4. If we assume the line as perfectly
symmetrical, the self inductance of all phase are equal and is denoted as Zs and the mutualinductance between phases as Zm and the mutual inductance between phase and neutral as Zan.We can write Kirchhoffs voltage loop equation for the section of the line as follows: Van VanVbn Vbn

reactance does not vary during transients and is approximately equal to Xd . The zero sequencereactance is approximately equal to the leakage reactance of the machine.
