In a three phase 500 kV transmission line, diameter of the conductors are 48 mm. The breakdown strength of air under standard atmospheric conditions (in which pressure is 760 mm Hg and the temperature is 20°C) is 30 kV/cm We install this transmission line in a region with different atmospheric conditions in which air pressure is 705 mm Hg and the temperature is 50 °C, determine the minimum distance between two phases if the correction factor is k=0.92.

High voltage system
In a three phase 500 kV transmission line, diameter of the conductors are 48 mm. The breakdown strength of air
under standard atmospheric conditions (in which pressure is 760 mm Hg and the temperature is 200C) is 30 kV/cm
We install this transmission line in a region with different atmospheric conditions in which air pressure is
705 mm Hg and the temperature is 50 °C, determine the minimum distance between two phases if the correction
factor is k=0.92.
