The most effective way to reduce conductor voltage drop and power loss is to lower the current flowing through the bonded power conductors. This is accomplished by the transmis- sion vollage 14.6 Utility High-oge Transmission Lines a) reducing 10.

These conductors have a very low resistance, but because of their length, the con cuctor losses can be significant. actor 。 14.10 Generating Plants al voltage drop bi power e to perm 14.
