The power transmitted will be maximum when____________?

Correct answer: A. corona losses are minimum

  • A. corona losses are minimum
  • B. reactance is high
  • C. sending end voltage is more
  • D. receiving end voltage is more

Explanation

For a given system and sending conditions, reducing corona loss leaves more of the generated power available for transmission. High reactance increases voltage drop and reduces transferable power, so it is not the desired condition.
