Abstract

In recent days, the global scenario has been changed a lot and there is a tremendous development in every field particularly in the electrical field. If we don’t converge our innovative ideas for the development of new power technologies we may face a decreasing trend in the development of the power sector. The transmission of power with Ultra high voltage may be one excellent and efficient way of electricity transmission. The rapid growth in industrial sectors, the usage of Ultra High Voltage (UHV) is very much needed to meet the load demand. High voltage (HV) is the range between 66 kV and 400 kV, if the voltage is above 800 kV, it can be defined as UHV. With the advancement of new power technologies in the world, it could be seen that Japan, Russia, Italy, Brazil, America (U.S), and Canada began to improvise UHV technology in the 1960s and 1970s.nOver a century of power transmission evolution, research, engineering, construction, and operation of alternating current (AC) overhead power transmission lines of ever-growing rated voltages and development of substation apparatus for such lines made it possible to raise the transmission voltage from 10 kV to 1200 kV and the power transmission capacity from 180 kW to 5 GW, i. e. by four orders of magnitude. At present commercial AC transmission lines and networks of a medium, high, extra-high.
