In case of bundled conductors, We know that self GMD of conductor is increased
and in a conductor critical disruptive voltage of line depends upon GMD of
conductor. Since GMD of conductor is increased this causes critical disruptive
voltage is being reduced and if critical disruptive voltage is reduced, the corona
loss will also be reduced.

The Correct option is (A).
We know that Optimal Generation
IC1 = IC2 , and P3 = 300 MW (maximum load)
IC 3 = 30 (Independent of load)
20 + 0.3P1 = 30 + 0.4 P2

P1 = 242.8 MW
P2 = 157.14 MW

Sol. 76 The maximum error between the exact and asymptotic plot occurs at corner

Gain(dB) calculated from asymptotic plot at w = 0.5a is
= 20 log K
Error in gain (dB) = 20 log K - (20 log K - 0.96) dB = 0.96 dB
