In the analysis of which of the following lines shunt capacitance is neglected?

Correct answer: A. Short transmission lines

  • A. Short transmission lines
  • B. Medium transmission lines
  • C. Long transmission lines
  • D. Medium as well as long transmission lines

Explanation

Short transmission lines are usually treated as having negligible shunt capacitance because their length is small and the charging current is insignificant. Medium and long lines require capacitance in their equivalent models.
