    Surge impedance loading (SIL) of a transmission line: (1) Has no net reactive power flow into or out of the line. (2) Will have approximately a flat voltage profile along its length. (3) Is calculated as the square of the line's rated voltage divided by its surge impedance in MW.

    A transmission line loaded to its surge impedance loading:

    (i) has no net reactive power flow into or out of the line, and
    (ii) will have approximately a flat voltage profile along its length.

    For (i) to hold:

    V2 V2 TL V L
    I 2XL ' , or, ' XL Xc ' , or, ' ' Zo ' Load impedance

    This means that there will be no net reactive power flow at surge-impedance
    loading.

    This means that the line will have a flat voltage profile, i.e., no voltage drop.
    LOADABILITY CURVES

    Loadability of a line is limited by :

    (i) thermal limitation (I2R losses)


    (ii) voltage regulation
    (iii) stability limitation
