Abstract
A power transmission network typically connects power plants to multiple substations near a populated area thus the need for efficient, reliable, and safe lines is of great importance. Hence, this study was done. The main topic of the study was the creation of TRANSPRO software in determining the performance of power transmission line and to make it safe and reliable. The methodology of the study is composed of conceptualizing, developing the software features, and gathering of information, deriving of formulas and constructing the structure of the software using Visual C# as programming language. Sample problems are applied to verify the outputs of the program and were also verified using TQNE9080 transmission line simulator for its performance and efficiency. A survey among Mapua Institute of Technology electrical engineering students and professors was likewise conducted to know if the software will be a helpful educational tool for the analysis and design of power transmission line. Hence, from the validation of theories with respect to TRANSPRO having a percentage difference of less than 1%, to the validation of data with TQNE9080 transmission trainer by graphical analysis and to the interpretation of surveys conducted to Electrical Engineering Students and Professors, TRANSPRO was accepted and could be used as an educational tool for the design and analysis of power transmission lines.
