1- Conductor cables are considered the active elements of a transmission line, as they carry current. Such elements must exhibit some characteristics, what are they? Is there an element that meets all these requirements?

2- Several natural processes can interfere with the proper functioning of a transmission line, such as the action of winds on the cables, which causes a fatigue process due to vibrations, mechanically limiting them. Are there any provisions capable of reducing such effects? If yes, indicate which ones.

3-We have an aerial bifilial transmission line, powered by a constant voltage source of 700 V. The values ​​for the inductance of the conductors are 2.348x10-3 H/km and the capacitance values ​​are 6.325x10-9 F/km. Assuming an ideal (no loss) line and its length of 130 km, determine the impedance line natural.
