In Finland, steel-reinforced aluminum conductors with a total cross-sectional area of 3.4 cm 2 are used in 110 kV power transmission lines. In this case, the power losses are less than 2%. How large should the cross-sectional area of the conductor be in order for the 400 V transmission voltage to achieve as small power losses as for the 110 kV voltage when the transmitted power is the same?
