Resistivity using Volume of Conductor Material (DC 3-Wire)

Go Resistivity = Volume of Conductor*Line Losses*(Maximum Voltage Overhead DC^2)/((0.3125)*(Power Transmitted^2)*(Length of Wire DC^2))

Resistivity using Constant(DC 3-Wire)

Go Resistivity = Constant Overhead DC*Line Losses*(Maximum Voltage Overhead DC^2)/((Power Transmitted^2)*(Length of Wire DC^2))

Resistivity using Area of X-Section(DC 3-Wire)

Go Resistivity = (Line Losses*Area of Overhead DC Wire)/(2*Length of Wire DC*(Current Overhead DC^2))

Resistivity using Line Losses(DC 3-Wire)

Go Resistivity = (Line Losses*Area of Overhead DC Wire)/(2*Length of Wire DC*(Current Overhead DC^2))

Resistance(DC 3-Wire)

Go Resistance Overhead DC = Resistivity*Length of Wire DC/Area of Overhead DC Wire

Resistance using Line Losses(DC 3-Wire)

Go Resistance Overhead DC = Line Losses/2*(Current Overhead DC^2)
