Short Transmission Line DefinitionA short transmission line is defined as a transmission line less than 80 km (50 miles) long or with a voltage less than 69 kV.A short transmission line is defined as a transmission line with an effective length less than 80 km (50 miles), or with a voltage less than 69 kV. Unlike medium transmission lines and long transmission lines, the line charging current is negligible, and hence the shunt capacitance can be ignored.For short length, the shunt capacitance of
