$A$ small town with a demand of $800 \; kW$ of electric power at $220 \; V$ is situated $15 \; km$ away from an electric plant generating power at $440 \; V$. The resistance of the two-wire line carrying power is $0.5 \; \Omega/km$. The town gets power from the line through a $40,000-220 \; V$ step-down transformer at a sub-station in the town.
$(a)$ Estimate the line power loss in the form of heat.
$(b)$ How much power must the plant supply,assuming there is negligible power loss due to leakage?
$(c)$ Characterise the step-up transformer at the plant.
(Neglect,as before,leakage losses). Hence,explain why high-voltage transmission is preferred?
