Long-distance power transmission

MANY STUDIES have been made recently to determine the performance characteristics of long-distance transmission systems. This particular analysis considered straightaway transmission systems of 600 miles in length, a distance which is representative of transmission now under study and in actual development.1,3 The system characteristics and requirements for economic transmission outlined here may be used to guide the future development of long-distance as well as moderate-distance transmission systems.
