why insulation cost is more in underground cable than in
overhead line?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / biren
In overhead line there is air around the bare conductor which is a insulation layer but the earth around the under ground cable is a good conductor. so there is more chance of insulation failure, hence to avoid the normal insulation failure more insulation is provided which increases the cost.

An underground line is fill in the earth and when if the leakage current will flo in the erth the current rating will very high in the cable that is very dangerous for human and other and in the the overhead line the air is not good conductor of electricity while an underground line is more insulation than overhead line for this reason the insulation cost is more in underground system

I have installed capacitor bank at secondary transformer. cos phi is increase. but on load (far from transormer), it still poor. Can anybody explain it??
wht is the difference between volatge and wattage ? how can it be converted ? (like 15w = 6v ) like tht... ? actually what tht means ?
