Abstract :
Scope of this paper is to present results obtained by different procedures applied in the calculation of the electrical parameters for the simulation of low voltage distribution cables carrying high frequency communication signals. The examined procedures originate from methods used in transmission line modeling as well as in electromagnetic field analysis. Simple models of various cable types frequently installed in residential power distribution networks are used for the comparison of the procedures.
