How Do You Derive the Equation for a Medium-Distance Power Transmission Line?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on deriving the equation for a medium-distance power transmission line, specifically for a two-pair terminal setup. A user requests guidance on starting the derivation, and another participant suggests using a Pi network model, incorporating capacitors and resistors. This approach is confirmed as effective, leading to the user successfully solving the equation. The exchange highlights the collaborative nature of problem-solving in electrical engineering contexts. The Pi network method is affirmed as a valid solution for the equation derivation.

Hello.
I need to derive this equation (attached), can you help me please?

That's the equation for a two-pair terminal medium-distance power transmission line (20~100km).
I have no idea how to start it. Can someone guide me, please?

Hi MissP.25_5. Perhaps a clue lies in that bottom line. :wink:

Try a Pi network, with the two vertical limbs each a capacitor, and the horizontal part R + L.

So this leaves the Earth as a straight-through link common to both ports.

Note, I haven't examined this further.

Oh, yes! That's right, the Pi network is the solution! I just solved it, thanks to you!
