Which outcome occurs when distributed capacitance in a long transmission line circuit is ignored?

A)Ferranti effect voltage increase
B)Reduced line energy transmission
C)Improved power factor correction
D)Minimized corona discharge losses

💡 Explanation

Ignoring capacitance causes the Ferranti effect because line charging current becomes significant, therefore voltage at the receiving end rises higher than the sending end, rather than a predictable voltage drop under load.
