  Name of the activity Collect the information on components of transmission line. Introduction   The term Transmission Lines broadly refers to overhead transmission lines and underground cables. The key function of a transmission line is to transfer bulk power between generation sources and load centres. In India, generation voltage is generally 11 kV but for power transmission  33 KV, 66 KV, 110 KV, 132 KV, 220 KV, 400 KV and 765 kV  are used. Transmission voltage in India (highest) is 765 KV AC and these lines are erected by Power Grid Corporation for interstate connections throughout India. Transmission Lines are made up of various components, namely poles, lattice structures, conductors, cables, insulators, foundations and earthing systems. These components are described in more details below— Transmission Lines Components Ø Transmission Line Structures The primary functions of transmission line structures are to provide mechanical support to cond...

Name of the Activity: Prepare a report based on transmission line network in West Bengal Introduction: West Bengal State Electricity Transmission Company Limited  (WBSETCL)  exist to transmit power from generating stations to load centres through transmission corridors in accordance with standards set down in The Grid Code for the development of the state in particular and the nation in general. They use their assets and resources efficiently, coordinate between Grid Users and ensure Grid Discipline. They receive load forecast from the distribution companies and carry our planning, for future load growth and necessary construction and augmentation of the network and undertake preventive and restorative maintenance. In return they receive transmission and System Operation Charges; At the Present Time they are a reliable, strong and steady organization, but rather slow. They are team workers, methodical, plan for the future, are regimented and hard working....
