A three phase 50 Hz transmission line with a length of 150 km is connected to a load of 1.5 MW with 0.85 lagging power factor at 132 kV. The line conductor has series parameter of 0.25 + j0.48 Qkm and shunt parameter of 3.25 x 10° mho/km. Given that the conductors of the line are arranged symmetrically, calculate (i) the sending end current and voltage using pi-circuit representations for the line. (ii) line efficiency.
