in transmission line 11kv is step up or step down? why?

Answer Posted / kather basha

First of all we have to know that 11KV which is generated
from Generating station end will be stepup ed to 230KV 0r
more inorder to avoid losses, this case in only in
Transmission line.

But when going to distribution end S/S 11KV & 33KV S/S are
made stepdown inorder to use it as commercial load for
industries & household etc as 230V, 420V.

Is This Answer Correct ?    3 Yes 1 No

Sir, My doubt on cable sizing calculation, Load:74 KW calculated cable 1 run 50mm2. Now client asking us to reduce cable size by increasing runs. Sir, My question now when my mind strikes with 2 options 1) Divide load 74/2 = 36 and calculate cable for 36+36 making it 2 runs or 2) Simply i can divide 50mm2 /2 ie. 2 runs of 25mm2 Please suggest me sir
