Talk:Loading coil
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loading coils for power transmission systems? Can anyone substantiate this statement? While capacitors are installed for power factor correction, I am unaware of the use of coils in power distribution. LorenzoB 04:43, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- Distribution, no; underwater transmission, yes. See Cross-Skagerak for an example of how excess capacitance is dealt with when the distance is too great for load coils, and Submarine power cable for a brief but more general discussion.
