Transmission lines are classified based on three criteria.

a) Length of transmission line

b) Operating voltage

c) Effect of capacitance

The table below summarizes the classification of transmission lines.

Transmission Lines

Length of transmission line

Operating voltage

Effect of capacitance

Short transmission line

(0 - 80) km

(0 - 20) kV

'C' is not considered

Medium transmission line

(80 - 200) km

(20 - 100) kV

'C' is lumped.

Long transmission line

(> 200) km

(> 100) kV

'C' is distributed
