3. Introduction
The Egyptian Electrical Unified Network (EEUN)in
Egypt is divided into six geographical regions,
namely, Cairo, Canal, Delta, Alexandria/ west delta,
Middle Egypt, and Upper Egypt. The Egyptian
Electricity transmission system is composed of 500
kV, 400 kV, 220 kV, 132 kV, and 66 kV levels.
6. Introduction
Power system analysis
An electric power system is made up of electrical components to generate, transmit and use
electric power. This could be the elaborate network that supplies power to a region’s home
and industry through an electrical grid transmission system from generating plants located
faraway. Or, this could even be a captive power plant/micro-grid which generates and
consumes power within the same premises itself. The majority of these systems rely upon
three-phase AC power - the standard for large-scale power transmission and distribution
across the modern world. Specialized power systems are also found in aircraft, electric rail
systems, ocean liners and automobiles that do not always rely upon three-phase AC power.
The planning, design, and operation of these commercial and industrial power systems
requires in-depth engineering studies to evaluate existing and proposed system
performance, reliability, safety, and economics.
8. Per Unit Quantities
There are several reasons for using a per-unit system:
•Similar apparatus (generators, transformers, lines) will have similar per-
unit impedances and losses expressed on their own rating, regardless of
their absolute size.
•Use of the constant is reduced in three-phase calculations.
•Per-unit quantities are the same on either side of a transformer,
independent of voltage level.
•By normalizing quantities to a common base, both hand and
automatic calculations are simplified.

11. Per Unit Quantities
The terminl voltage of a Y connected load consisting of three equal
impedances of 2030 is 4.4 kV line to line. The impedance of each of
the three lines connecting the load to a bus at a bus station is
1.475W.
(a)Find the line-to-line voltage at the substation bus.
(b)Find the solution by working in per unit on a base of 4.4 kV, 127 A so
that both voltage and current magnitudes will be 1 .0 per unit.
Current rather than KVA is specified here since the latter quantity
does not enter the problem .
