Question

Question:Conductor spacings, types, and sizes do have an impact on the series impedance and shunt admittance.

(a) True

(b) False

Short answer

Answer

Therefore, the correct option is (a) True.

Step-by-step solution

Explain the conductor spacing 

Series impedance affects line-voltage drops I² R losses, and stability limits, Shunt admittance, primarily capacitive, affects line charging currents, which inject reactive power into the power system.

Shunt reactors (inductors) are often installed on lightly loaded EHV lines to absorb part of this reactive power, thereby reducing over voltages.

Draw the conclusion

Conductor spacing, types, and sizes also determine the series impedance and shunt admittance. Series impedance affects line-voltage drops, I² R losses, and stability limits.

Thus theconductor spacing, types, and sizes do have an impact on the series impedance and shunt admittance. So, the given statement is true.
