Area of X-Section using Load Current (Single-Phase Two-Wire OS) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Area of Overhead AC Wire = (2*Current Overhead AC^2*Resistivity*Length of Overhead AC Wire)/(Line Losses)
A = (2*I^2*ρ*L)/(P_loss)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Area of Overhead AC Wire - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Overhead AC Wire is defined as the cross-sectional area of the wire of an AC supply system.
Current Overhead AC - (Measured in Ampere) - Current Overhead AC is defined as the current flowing through the overhead ac supply wire.
Resistivity - (Measured in Ohm Meter) - Resistivity is the measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of current through them.
Length of Overhead AC Wire - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Overhead AC Wire is the total length of the wire from one end to other end.
Line Losses - (Measured in Watt) - Line Losses is defined as the total losses occurring in an Overhead AC line when in use.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Current Overhead AC: 6.9 Ampere --> 6.9 Ampere No Conversion Required
Resistivity: 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter --> 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter No Conversion Required

What is the value of maximum voltage and volume of conductor material in 1-phase 2-wire system?

The volume of conductor material required in this system is 2/cos²θ times that of 2-wire d.c.system with the one conductor earthed. The maximum voltage between conductors is v_m so that r.m.s. value of voltage between them is v_m/√2.
