Necessity of Extra High Voltage (EHV) Transmission | Electricity

Modern trend is to use extra high voltage (EHV) and ultra-high voltage (UHV) for transmission of huge blocks of power over long distances. The reasons for adopting of EHV/UHV range for transmission purposes are given below: 1. Reduction of Electrical Losses, Increase in Transmission Efficiency, Improve­ment of Voltage Regulation and Reduction in Conductor Material Requirement: For transmission of given amount [...]
