In Ferranti effect,Receiving end voltage is greater than
sending voltage,why? can anybody tell me the answer

Answer Posted / n.r.biswas

In a long transmission line, there is a rise of voltage at
the receiving end due to no load or light loads. In long
transmission line having large capacitance which causes
large charging current in the line, occurs voltage drp in
the line, accordingly, receiving end voltage becomes
greater than the sending end voltage, the phenomenan is
called ferranti effec
Line drop = Ic(R+jX) Ic - Charging current at no load
Vr=Vs+Ic(R+jX) Ic leads Vr by an angle 90 Deg.

I have a current transformer with 1 main reading meter with transformer outside the building and a control panel having 5 CT reading meters with black round coils inside the building. I want to know, A) when current pass through the Transformers, will the current be reduced or be the same and after that B) when current pass through the CT meters with black round coils, will the current be reduced or be the same. C) in the above process will the reading of the main meter be same or different, from the total reading of all the 5 CT meters.
