READ THIS FIRST

The function [GMD, GMRI, GMRC] = gmd is developed for the computation of GMD, GMRL, and
GMRc for single-single, double-circuit vertical, and horizontal transposed lines with up to four bundled
conductors. A menu is displayed for the selection of any of the above three circuits. The user is prompted
to input the phase spacing, number of bundled conductors and their spacing, conductor diameter and the
GMR of the individual conductor. The command acsr will display the characteristics of ACSR
conductors. Also, the function [L,C] = gmd2lc in addition to the geometric mean values returns the
inductance in mH per km and the capacitance in F per km.

INSTRUCTION:
A 735 kV three-phase transposed line is composed of four ACSR, 954,000 cmil, 45/7 Rail conductors per
phase with horizontal conductor configuration as shown in Figure 4.0. Bundle spacing is 46 cm. Use acsr
in MATLAB to obtain the conductor size and the electrical characteristics for the Rail conductor. Find the
inductance and capacitance per phase per kilometer of the line.
