Choice of conductors is based upon considerations such as cost, transmission losses and other desirable characteristics of the metal like tensile strength.
22.
In the SIN, distribution losses represented 23 % of the total in 2003, while transmission losses, according to ANDE, were 7.3 %.
23.
While the crankshaft power excludes these transmission losses, still the measurement is often made elsewhere in the drive-train, often at the rear wheel.
24.
With DC there was no way to transform power to high voltages, which would have reduced the current and lowered the transmission losses.
25.
The Transmission losses have been brought down from 3.84 % in 2002-03 to 0.83 % in 2006-07, and are the lowest in the country.
26.
A reduction or loss of energy occurs with cross hearing, which is referred to as interaural attenuation ( IA ) or transcranial transmission loss.
27.
These Transmission Loss values are then plotted on a sound pressure level graph and the resulting curve is compared to a standard reference contour.
28.
Grid-connected solar electricity can be used locally thus reducing transmission / distribution losses ( transmission losses in the US were approximately 7.2 % in 1995 ).
29.
In the past, the transmission losses suffered while distributing centrally-generated electricity over long distances were more than outweighed by the economies of scale of large power stations.
30.
Because of the higher solar radiation in MENA, the production of energy, even with the included transmissions losses, is still advantageous over the production in South Europe.
