    This document discusses medium length transmission lines that are between 80-160 km. These lines have lumped parameters and can be modeled using either a nominal-T or nominal-π configuration. The nominal-T configuration models the shunt capacitance as being concentrated in the middle of the line, while the nominal-π configuration models half the shunt capacitance at each end. These are approximate models but are good enough for practical purposes with little error. The document goes on to describe the vector diagram for a lagging power factor load when using the nominal-T configuration, noting it is preferable to use the receiving end current as the reference vector.

    4.3 MEDIUM LENGTH LINES

    It has been mentioned previously that transmission lines with lengths between 80 km and 160
    km are categorised as medium length lines where the parameters are assumed to be lumped.
    The shunt capacitance is either assumed to be concentrated at the middle of the line or half of
    the total capacitance is concentrated at each end of the line. The two configurations are known
    as nominal-T and nominal- respectively. The nominal circuits are shown in Figs. 4.5 (a) and
    (b).

    It is to be noted that the two representations are approximate to the exact representation
    of the actual line. Also the two representations are not equivalent as can be seen by using the
    star-delta transformations. However, they are good enough for practical purposes and do not
    involve much error.

    4.3.1 Nominal-6
    The vector diagram for lagging power factor load is shown in Fig. 4.6. While analysing the
    medium length lines using nominal-T, it is preferable to take receiving end current as the
    reference vector as the calculations become relatively easier as compared to taking Vr as the
    reference.
