tage Drop in a Transmission Line.—When electricenergy is transmitted from one point to another over wires, a 24 PRINCIPLES OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING [Chap.v voltage, called the drop in the line, is required to force the cur-rent through the wires. This voltage = IR where R is the totalresistance of… … Fig. 25. The power to be delivered at the end of a 2 mile line is 30 kw. If the receiver voltage is 600, find the size of wire required to limit the voltage drop in the line to 5 per cent., find also the power loss in the line. 30 X 1000 rn = 50 amp. 600 Current in line = The voltage drop in the…
