    The document discusses calculating inductance, inductive reactance, capacitance and admittance of overhead power lines by changing parameters like conductor diameter and phase spacing.

    Increasing the conductor diameter by 20% results in a 4.1% decrease in inductance, while decreasing it by 20% leads to a 5% increase in inductance. The internal inductance is independent of diameter.

    Increasing the phase spacing by 20% decreases the shunt capacitance and admittance by 3.4%, while decreasing it by 20% increases them by 4.4%

    L = Lx + Ly = 1.869 mH/km per circuit.
    Compare the results with those of Problem 1.
    Lint is independent of conductor diameter.
    A 20% increase in conductor diameter results in a 4.1% decrease in inductance.
    A 20% decrease in conductor diameter results in a 5% increase in inductance.
    Problem 3. A 60-Hz three-phase, three-wire overhead line has solid cylindrical conductors arranged in the form of
    an equilateral triangle with 4 ft conductor spacing. Conductor diameter is 0.5 in. Calculate the positive-sequence
    inductance in H/m and the positive-sequence inductive reactance in /km.
