model. This means that:
Transmission system congestion is now managed between thousands of small
points (nodes) in the ERCOT system, rather than between a few large zones.
At a certain bus, current lags voltage by 72. What fraction of a cycle does this 72
phase lag correspond to?
1/5th
What is the peak value of the voltage amplitude for a 345 KV AC voltage?
345/.707= 244 KV
