This paper presents the theory and results of a new real-time digital simulator of transmission lines. The simulator is based on time domain formulation. It obtains the electromagnetic transient performance of balanced three-phase lines in real-time. Sample results of energizing a transmission line from balanced and unbalanced sources are presented. The real-time digital simulator results are verified for accuracy by simulating the same system, off line, on EMTP program. The newly developed real-time digital simulator can readily be incorporated into modern TNA and hvdc simulators. Their application, in place of large number of II or GAMMA sections of passive networks, is economical, space saving and accurate. As well the realization of real-time digital simulators of transmission line signals the imminent arrival of totally digital, real-time simulators of power networks.
