oriented 120 degrees in a positive (counter-clockwise)

by a is not changed in magnitude but is simply rotated in
Position 120 degrees in the forward direction. For example, V=aV is a vector having the same length as the
vector V, but rotated 120 degrees forward from the vector
v. This relationship is shown in Fig. 1. The square of
the vector a is another unit vector oriented 120 degrees

The equations and vector diagrams illustrate the interesting fact that the numerical relation between the lineto-line and line-to-neutral positive-sequence components
is the same as for negative-sequence; but that the angular
shift for negative-sequence is opposite to that for positivesequence, regardless of the delta phase selected for reference. Also, a connection of power or regulating transformers giving a shift of 0 degrees in the transformation
for positive-sequence voltage and current will give a shift
of - 0 degrees in the transformation for negative-sequence
voltage and current.

The zero-sequence line-to-neutral voltages, E, and l?, are
entirely independent; each being determined by conditions
in its respective circuit. The transformation characteristics
for the three sequence currents and voltages, and the sequence impedance characteristics, for common connections
of power and regulating transformers are given in Chap. 5.
The action of a transformer hank in the transformation of
zero-sequence currents must be given particular attention,
since certain connections do not permit zero-sequence current to flow, others permit it to pass through t,hc bank
without transformation, and still others transform zerosequence quantities in the same manner as positive- or
negative-sequence quantities are transformed.

5. General Considerations
One of the most useful concepts arising from symmctricnl components is that of the sequence network, which
is an equivalent network for the balanced power system
Imder an imagined operating condition such that only one
sequence component of voltages and currents is present in
t,hc system. As shown above for the case of balanced loads
(and it can be readily shown in general) currents of one
sequence will create voltage drops of that sequence only, if
:L power system is balanced (equal series impedances in all
three phases, equal mutual impedances between phases,
rotating machines symmetrical in all three phases, all
hanks of transformers symmetrical in all three phases,
~tc.). There will be no interaction between sequences and
the sequences are independent. Kearly all power systems
can be assumed to be balanced except for emergency conditions such as short-circuits, faults, unbalanced load, unbalanced open circuits, or unsymmetrical conditions arising
in rotating machines. Even under such emergency unbalanced conditions, which usually occur at only one point in
the system, the remainder of the power system remains
balanced and an equivalent sequence network can be ob-

THE
As discussed in Part II, Sec. 3 of this chapter, any unbalance or dissymmetry in the system will result in mutual
action between the sequences, so that it is to he expected
that the sequence networks will have mutual coupling, or
possibly direct connections, between them at the point of
unbalance. Equations can be written for the conditions
existing at the point of unbalance that show the coupling
or connections necessarily existing between the sequence
networks at that point.
As pointed out in Sec. 5, it is usually sufficiently accurate
to reduce a given system to an equivalent source and single
reactance to the point of fault. This in effect means that
the system is reduced to a single generator with a fault
applied at its terminals. Figs. 20(a) through 20(e) show
such an equivalent system with the more common types of
faults applied. For example Fig. 20(a) is drawn for a three-

form the proper restraints or terminal connections to represent mult,iple unbalances. For example, the representation for a simultaneous single line-to-ground fault on phase
~a and a line-to-line fault on phases 6 and <c can be
derived by satisfying the terminal connections of Figs.
21(d) and 21(f). F ig. 21(d) dictates that the three netlvorks be connected in series, while Fig. 21(f) shows the
positive- and negative-sequence networks in parallel. Both
of these reqllirements can be met simultaneously as shown
in Fig. 22(a). Simultaneous faults that are not symmetrical to the reference phase can be represented by similar connections using ideal transformers or phase shifters
to shift the sequence voltages and currents originating in
all of the unbalances except the first or reference condition.
The fault involving phase a is usually taken as the
rcfcrence and all others are shifted by the proper amount
))efore making the terminal connections rcquircd to satisfy
that particular type of fault. The positive-, negative-, and
zero-sequence shifts, respectively for an unbalance that is
symmetrical to phase a are 1, 1, 1; b phase a?, a, 1;
to lc phase a, a2, 1. A few multiple unbalances that may
occur at one point in a system simultaneously are given in
Fig. 22, which also gives one illustration of simultaneous
faults at different points in a system with one fault not
symmetrical with respect to phase a.
To summarize, the procedure in finding voltages and
currents throughout a system during fault conditions is:
(1) set up each sequence network as viewed from the fault,
(2) find the distribution factors for each sequence current
throughout its network, (3) reduce the network to as simple a circuit as possible, (4) make the proper connection
between the networks at the fault point to represent the
unbalanced condition, (5) solve the resulting single-phase
circuit for the sequence currents at the fault, (6) find the
sequence components of voltage and current at the desired
locations in the system. The positive-sequence voltage to
be used, and the machine impedances, in step (5) depend
upon when the fault currents and voltages are desired; if
immediately after the fault occurs, in general, use subtransient reactances and the voltage back of subtransient
reactance immediately preceding the fault; if a few cycles
after the fault occurs, use transient reactances and the
voltage back of transient reactance immediately before the
fault; and if steady-state conditions are desired, use synchronous reactances and the voltage back of synchronous
reactance. If regulators are used, normal bus voltage can
be used to find steady-state conditions and the machine
reactance in the positive-sequence network taken as being
zero.

(1) That the fault currents are to be calculated using
transient reactances.
(2) A base of 50,000 kva for the calculations.
(3) That all resistances can be neglected.
(4) That a voltage, positive-sequence, as viewed from
the fault of j 100% will be used for reference. This
.66,000
is an assumed voltage of J 1/3 volts between
line (a and neutral.

phase position from the positive-sequence voltage on
the low side of the transformer.

Reactances of
Zero-Sequence Reactance+-Since
zero-sequence
currents flowing in either the llO- or the BG-kv line will induce a zero-sequence voltage in the other line and in all
three ground wires, the zero-sequence mutual reactances
between lines, between each line and the t1v-osets of ground
wires, and between the two sets of ground wires, must be
evaluated as well as the zero-sequence self reactances. Indeed, the zero-sequence self reactance of either the 110or the GG-kv line will be affected by the mutual coupling
existing with all of the ground wires. The three conductors
of the llO-kv line, with ground return, are assumed to form
one zero-sequence circuit, denoted by a in Fig. 24; the
two ground conductors for this line, with ground return,
form the zero-sequence circuit denoted g; the three conductors for the 66-kv line, with ground return, form the
zero-sequence circuit denoted a; and the single ground
wire for the 66-kv line, with ground return, forms the zerosequence circuit denoted g. Although not strictly correct, we assume t.he currents carried by the two ground
wires of circuit g are equal. Then let:

I. TYPES OF CONDUCTORS
Courlesy
Fig. 2-A
In the electric-power field the following types of conductors are generally used for high-voltage power transmission lines: stranded copper conductors, hollow copper conductors, and ACSR (aluminum cable, steel reinforced).
Other types of conductors such as Copper-weld and Copperweld-Copper conductors are also used for transmission
and distribution lines. Use is made of Copperweld, bronze,
copper bronze, and steel for current-carrying conductors
on rural lines, as overhead ground wires for transmission
lines, as buried counterpoises at the base of transmission
towers, and also for long river crossings.
A stranded conductor, typical of both copper and steel
conductors in the larger sizes, is shown in Fig. 1. A stranded conductor is easier to handle and is more flexible than a
solid conductor, particularly in the larger sizes.
A typical ACSR conductor is illustrated in Fig. 2. In
this type of conductor, aluminum strands are wound about
a core +f stranded steel. Varying relationships between
tensile strength and current-carrying capacity as well as
overall size of conductor can be obtained by varying the
proportions of steel and aluminum. By the use of a filler,
such as paper, between the outer aluminum strands and
the inner steel strands, a conductor of large diameter can
be obtained for use in high voItage lines. This type of con-
