Loop Inductance in a Two-Wire Line

qImage67cdc6326f09be7ff0ce6e4b

The given image represents a group of two conductors. This group of conductors forms a loop inductance in a single-phase two-wire line.

When alternating current flows through the two conductors of a transmission line, each conductor generates a magnetic field, which results in self-inductance and mutual inductance effects. 

The total loop inductance (Lloop) is the inductance experienced by the complete path of current flow, which includes both conductors. It is given by: 

\(\rm \frac {Inductance \ of \ conductor} {Loop \ inductance}=0.5\)

This means that in a single-phase two-wire system, the inductance of one conductor contributes half of the total loop inductance.
