Overhead transmission line behavior is governed by three distributed electrical parameters—series resistance, series inductance, and shunt capacitance to ground—derived from conductor geometry, material properties, and spacing via electromagnetic field theory (Ampere's law for inductance, Gauss's law for capacitance). These parameters combine into per-unit-length series impedance and shunt admittance, which in turn determine a two-port network representation (ABCD parameters) used to relate sending-end and receiving-end voltage and current, with model complexity (lumped short-line, nominal-pi medium-line, or fully distributed long-line) selected according to line length.
