Question

Which of the following statements is not true with respect to ac transmission systems? 

A.

The power can be generated at high voltages 

B.

Due to skin effect in the ac system, the effective resistance of the line is decreased 

C.

The ac voltage can be stepped up or stepped down by transformers with ease and efficiency 

D.

The maintenance of ac sub-stations is easy and inexpensive

Answer ( Option B)

Due to skin effect in the ac system, the effective resistance of the line is decreased 

Solution

A.C. power can be generated at high voltage and it can be done with ease of step-up or step-down voltage by the transformer. Also ac maintenance of distribution sub-station is easy and cheap. In the AC system has a skin effect due to which effective resistance of the line is increased, hence statement (b) is incorrect.

Hence, the correct option is (B).
