The various diagram for
representing the power system
One Line or Single Line Diagram • A three phase balanced system is always solved as a single phase circuit consisting of one of the three lines and a neutral return. • Also, the diagram is further simplified by omitting the completed circuit through the neutral and by indicating the components of the system by standard symbols rather than by their equivalent circuits. • The one – line diagram is used to draw the single-phase equivalent circuit of the system. Generators : MVA, kV, subtransient reactance X” Transformer : Vp / Vs, MVA, X Load : P, Q or S, pf. Impedance diagram • Here, the equivalent circuits of all the components of the power system are drawn and they are interconnected. • Loads are represented by resistance and inductive reactance in series.

Impedance Diagram of a typical power system
Simplified Impedance diagram • Needed for fault calculations, • resistance values are omitted, as they are small • Loads which do not involve rotating machinery are omitted as they have little effect on the total current during a fault. • Synchronous motor loads are to be included in fault calculations • Induction motors are taken into account by an emf generated in series with the inductive reactance when the current immediately after the fault is determined. Ignored when computing the current a few cycles after the occurrence of the fault Reactance diagram • After omitting all static loads, all resistances, the magnetizing current of each transformer and the capacitance of the transmission line, the impedance diagram reduces to the reactance diagram as shown below
