Abstract :
Low-reactance powerhouse equipment would increase costs for the McNary Dam installation by $3,200,000. Combining cost analysis with network analyzer studies, however, showed that this increase would be more than offset by transmission-line savings. Over-all savings of $7,000,000 are estimated.
