Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFSingle line diagram of power system
Stage of power system |
Voltage Level |
Generation |
11 kV |
Primary transmission |
132 kV / 220 kV |
Secondary transmission |
66 kV |
Primary distribution |
11 kV / 6.6 kV |
Secondary distribution |
440 V / 220 V |
The primary distribution is carried out by a 3-phase 3-wire system.
Primary distribution handles large consumers such as factories and industries which need voltage in kV which is possible only 3-phase 3-wire system.
If it is carried out with 1ϕ, then there are chances of voltage drop.
