  1. What is the capacitance of neutral/km of a 1 – φ phase line composed of number 2 single strand conductor radius is 0.328 cm, spaced 3 m apart and 7.5 m above the ground ? Neglecting earth effect.
    1. 0.817 µF/km
    2. 0.00817 µF/km
    3. 0.0212 µF/km
    4. 0.516 µF/km
Correct Option: B

Neglecting the presence of earth, we have

Cn =
0.0242
F/km

D
r

=
0.0242
= 0.00817 F/km
log
