TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
CONCLUSION
Introduction:
The concept of six phase
transmission lines was
introduced by Barns & Barthold
during 1972. Six phase power
system is a part of multiphase
power system. Due to harmonics
effect and various other reasons
Six phase systems and six phase
machines are not popular but six
phase transmission lines are more
popular due to its increased
power transfer capability by

phase line.
In 1978 the U.S.
Department of energy sponsored
a project for the construction and
testing of experimental 6 and 12
phase lines. As a part of this
project, new high phase order
tower, insulators and insulator
spacer designs were developed.
Test lines have successfully
shown practical and simple
constructions for 6-phase
transmission and proved all
advantages predicted before.
