To increase the visual critical voltage of cporona for an overhead line, one solid phase-conductor is replaced by a “bundle” of four smaller conductors per phase, having an aggregate cross-sectional area equal to that of the solid conductor. If the radius of the solid conductor is 40 mm, then the radius of each of the bundle conductors would be _______ mm
-
- 2.0 mm.
- 0.020 mm.
- 0.20 mm.
- 20 mm.
Correct Option: D
πR² = nπr²
∴ r = R √n = 40 √4 = 20 mm.
