Given is a 1 km long 380 kV transmission line.

The resistance for 1 km is 7.2 milliOhm (mOhm) or 0.0072 Ohm.

Max. Load for the line is 2460 Amps.

This circuit shows the loss of 17.7 Volts every Kilometer.

Power Loss per km U*I = 17,71V * 2460A = 43,57kW

Interesting. In practice, would capacitance and inductance per length of the transmission line need to be considered?
