  2. Electric power transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_transmission

    The study measured the electric field strength at the edge of an existing right-of-way on a 765 kV transmission line. The field strength was 1.6 kV/m, and became the interim maximum strength standard for new transmission lines in New York State. The opinion also limited the voltage of new transmission lines built in New York to 345 kV.

  3. Electric power distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_distribution

    Rural electrification systems tend to use higher distribution voltages because of the longer distances covered by distribution lines (see Rural Electrification Administration). 7.2, 12.47, 25, and 34.5 kV distribution is common in the United States; 11 kV and 33 kV are common in the UK, Australia and New Zealand; 11 kV and 22 kV are common in ...

  4. Quadrature booster - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrature_booster

    400 MVA 220/155 kV phase-shifting transformer.. A phase angle regulating transformer, phase angle regulator (PAR, American usage), phase-shifting transformer, phase shifter (West coast American usage), or quadrature booster (quad booster, British usage), is a specialised form of transformer used to control the flow of real power on three-phase electric transmission networks.

  5. Substation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substation

    A 115 kV to 41.6/12.47 kV 5 MVA 60 Hz substation with circuit switcher, regulators, reclosers and control building at Warren, Minnesota. It shows elements of low-profile construction, with apparatus mounted on individual columns. A substation is a part of an electrical generation, transmission, and distribution system.

  6. Zigzag transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigzag_transformer

    A combination of Y (wye or star), delta, and zigzag windings may be used to achieve a vector phase shift. For example, an electrical network may have a transmission network of 110 kV/33 kV star/star transformers, with 33 kV/11 kV delta/star for the high voltage distribution network.

  7. Distribution transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_transformer

    Primaries provide power at the standard distribution voltages used in the area; these range from as low as 2.3 kV to about 35 kV depending on local distribution practice and standards, often 11 kV (50 Hz systems) and 13.8 kV (60 Hz systems) are used, but many other voltages are standard.

  8. Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maharashtra_State...

    33 kV, 22 kV & 11 kV transmission lines, Sub-stations and Distribution Transformers spread over 3.08 lakh km 2 geographical area of Maharashtra covering 41,928 villages and 457 towns. It has 2680 sub-stations & Switching Stations with 49,000 MVA of transformation capacity, 10,334 HV feeders, and several thousand circuit km of HT and LT lines.

  9. Delta-wye transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta-wye_transformer

    The delta winding allows third-harmonic currents to circulate within the transformer, and prevents third-harmonic currents from flowing in the supply line. [2] Delta-wye transformers introduce a 30, 150, 210, or 330 degree phase shift. [3] Thus they cannot be paralleled with wye-wye (or delta-delta) transformers.
