8. Calculate % Voltage Regulation of Distribution Line
In circuit current need to be lower than this in order to keep the voltage drop within permissible
values. The high voltage circuit should be carried as far as possible so that the secondary circuit
have small voltage drop.
Voltage Regulation for 11KV, 22KV, 33KV Overhead Line
The voltage variations in 33 kV and 11kV feeders should not exceed the following limits at the
farthest end under peak load conditions and normal system operation regime.
In case it is difficult to achieve the desired voltage especially in Rural areas, then 11/0.433 kV
distribution transformers(in place of normal 11/0.4 kV DT’s) may be used in these areas.
Required Size of Capacitor
Size of capacitor for improvement of the Power Factor from Cos ø1 to Cos ø2 is:
Here Trail end Point % Voltage Regulation is 2.51% which is in permissible limit.
