Question

Consider the following statements :

High voltage is used in long distance power transmission in order to :

A. Reduce the time of transmission

B. Reduce the transmission losses

C. make the system reliable Out of these,

The correct statements are? 

A.

Only B 

B.

All three  

C.

Only A and B 

D.

Only A and C

Answer ( Option A)

Only B 

Solution

Advantages of high voltage transmission

With increase in the transmission voltage size of conductor is reduced.

Reduction in transmission current causes reduction in transmission losses (I2 losses)

Due to low current, voltage drop will be less so voltage regulation improves.

Hence, the correct option is (A).
