A Side Note
we used the Table to look up the GMR of
Bluebird conductor and found GMR = 0.706
in.
what do you think the outer diameter of the
conductor is?
it is 1.762 inches. Does this fit in with our
understanding of r?

Observations
example 1: solid conductor, r = 1 in.;
symmetric, D = 20 ft ; no bundle
example 4: Bluebird, GMR = .706 in., same
configuration
example 2: solid conductor, r = 1. in; bundled
at 18 in. (GMR = 8.95 in.); same
configuration

the larger the radius, the less the inductive reactance
what can be said about the inductive reactance as
the distance between phases increases?
