A 3- phase 132 kV, 50 Hz 150 km long overhead transmission line consists of three stranded aluminum conductors, each of diameter 19.53 mm with asymmetrical spacing among them. The conductors are transposed at regular intervals, in one particular transposition cycle the separation between the A-B-C phase conductors are AB= 4 cm, BC=3.6 cm, CA=4 cm Would there be any corona under normal atmospheric condition?
