Identify given parameters

The line voltage $V$ is given as $132 \text{ kV}$ and the line reactance $X$ is $40 \text{ } \Omega$.

$V = 132 \times 10³ \text{ V}, X = 40 \text{ } \Omega$

Apply Steady State Stability Limit formula

The capacity of the transmission line (maximum power transfer) is determined by the formula $P = \frac{V²}{X}$ where $\delta = 90°$ for maximum power.

$P = \frac{(132 \times 10³)^2}{40}$

Calculate the power

Calculating the value: $P = \frac{17424 \times 10⁶}{40} = 435.6 \times 10⁶ \text{ W}$. Converting to MW gives $435.6 \text{ MW}$.

$P = 435.6 \text{ MW}$
