Abstract :
THE AVERAGE VALUES of the capacitance and surface voltage gradient of a 3-phase transmission line can be computed quickly by well-known formulas. However, the surface voltage gradient on some parts of the line may be several per cent higher than the average value. Precise computations of this important quantity for the individual conductors are of engineering value and often are made.
