We begin with a brief review of per unit calculation used in power system analysis.
Review of Per unit Calculation and Modeling of Apparatus
Per unit value of any quantity is the ratio of that quantity to its base value.
Actual Quantity
PerUnit Quantity =
Base Quantity
Quantities like voltage, current, power, impedance etc can be expressed in per unit. In
the per-unit system there are four base quantities: base apparent power in volt-
amperes, base voltage, base current and base impedance.
The following formulae apply to three- phase system, where the base voltage is the
line-to-line voltage in volts or kilovolts and the base apparent power is the three-
phase apparent power in kilovolt – amperes or mega volt- ampere (MVA)

Applying sequence transformation DV1 = Z1 I1 , DV2 = Z 2 I 2 and DV0 = Z 0 I 0
Where, Z1 = Z 2 = Z s - Z m and Z 0 = Z s + 2 Z m
Thus for a transposed transmission line, the positive and negative sequence
impedances are equal. A good approximation for Z 0 is 3 times Z1 .
Modeling of Mutually Coupled Lines (Sub Heading)
If a pair of 3 f - transmission lines are for enough, then mutual coupling between them is
neglible (or zero). Fig 12.2 shows two three phase rtransmission lines running parallel and

close to each other. As per Ampere’s law, [ � Hi dl = inet ] if the lines a1 , b1 and c1 carry
balanced +ve or –ve sequence currents, flux linking in circuit 2 is zero. (
Q inet (t ) = ia (t ) + ib (t ) + ic (t ) = 0 ) However, for zero sequence currents in circuit 1, flux
linking in circuit 2 is not zero. Thus, we see for parallel coupled lines, mutual coupling is
predominantly seen only in the zero sequence circuit. However, it is not modeled for
positive and negative sequence circuits. The same result can be mathematically derived as
follows.
Consider two three phase transmission lines on the same tower. Assume that all the lines
are transposed. Then all the mutual impedances between the two circuits will be equal.
Let mutual impedance of phase a2 with phases a1 , b1 and c1 be equal to a . Then the
model of such transmission line in phase coordinates is given by,

It can be seen that mutual coupling between positive and negative sequence network of
parallel transmission lines is zero. But, mutual coupling in zero sequence network is not
zero. Hence three phase faults and line to line faults will not be affected by mutual
coupling. But for all faults involving ground, fault current will be affected by mutual
coupling. This will affect the performance of relays.

L0 = N f0 I 0 = 0 .
Ideally, zero sequence impedance of an ideal core type transformer is zero.
Practically, the flux, fa , fb and fc will not be zero. Rather a leakage flux would exist
in the high reluctance path through air. Hence, leakage impedance of a core type
transformer would be nonzero; its value being much less than positive sequence
impedance.
In contrast, for a shell type transformer (fig 12.4) there exists a low reluctance path
through side limb for zero sequence flux. Hence Z 0 is much higher for shell type
transformer.
Three phase Transformer Using Bank of three Single phase Transformers (Sub’s Sub
Heading)
It can be easily argued that for such a configuration, low reluctance zero sequence
flux path exists and hence appreciable zero sequence flux can stay in the core.
Therefore, zero sequence impedance of three phase transformer bank can be as high
as the positive sequence impedance.
It should be mentioned that actual impedance should also include resistance of the
windings. So far we have discussed characterization of the zero sequence impedance
of the three phase transformer, this impedance may not always appear between the H
(HV) to L (LV) bus. In case of positive or negative sequence currents, there is always
a path for line currents from H to L through the sequence leakage impedance. This is
irrespective of the transformer connection (D/Y or Y/Y etc) because, there is always a
path for positive and negative sequence line currents to flow.
However, zero sequence currents in transformer depend not only on zero sequence
impedance but also on the type of transformer connection. For example, a star
ungrounded winding does not provide any path for flow of zero sequence current. The
neutral current is given by I n = I a + I b + I c = 3I 0 . Since neutral current is ungrounded
I n = 0 and hence I 0 is also zero. Delta winding permit circulating zero sequence
currents which cannot appear in the line. Fig. 12.5 This leads to dependence of zero
sequence transformer model on the type of connection. Fig. 12.6 shows zero sequence
modeling for different transformer connections.
N1 indicates neutral bus for positive sequence, N2 indicates neutral bus for negative
sequence and N0 for zero sequence networks.

Positive sequence Impedance of Synchronous Generators
"
The subtransient reactance X d determines the current during the first cycle after fault
'
occurs. In about 0.1sec reactance increases to transient reactance X d . In about 0.5sec
to 2sec, reactance increases to X d , the Synchronous reactance; this is the value that
determines the current flow after a steady state condition is reached.
Synchronous generator data available from manufacturers includes two values of
" " "
direct axis reactance – X dv and X di . The X dv value should be used for short – circuit
calculations.
Positive Sequence Impedance of Synchronous Motors and Condensers
During fault motor acts as a generator to supply fault current. The rotor carrying the
field winding is driven by the inertia of the rotor and load. Stator excitation is reduced
due to drop in voltage. The fault current diminishes as the rotor decelerates. The
generator equivalent circuit is used for synchronous motor. The constant driving
" '
voltage and three reactance X d , X d and X d are used to establish the current values
at three points in time. Synchronous condensers can be treated in same manner as
synchronous motors.

By permuting the rows and columns in such a way that all the zero sequence, positive

Thevenin's impedance. The Thevenin's impedance for negative and zero sequence
networks proceed more or less on similar lines except that loads are not aggregated in
Ybus . Alternatively, loads can also be represented by simple positive sequence current
sources obtained from load flow analysis. Obviously, the result will depend upon the
modeling of load. The fault currents are computed by well known sequence network
interconnections, discussed in the previous lecture.
