Power is generated at 24 kV at a generating plant located 56 km from a town that requires 55 MW of power at 12 kV. Two transmission lines from the plant to the town each have a resistance of 0.10 Ω / km. What should the output voltage of the transformer at the generating plant be for an overall transmission efficiency of 98.5%, assuming a perfect transformer?
