In the India, especially in metropolitan areas, transmission infrastructure is congested due to a combination of increasing load demands, declining investment, and aging facilities. It is anticipated that significant investments will be required for new construction and upgrades in order to serve load demands. This paper explores higher phase order systems, specifically, six-phase, as a means of increasing power transfer capability, and provides a comparison with conventional three-phase double circuit transmission lines. Line parameters calculations performed in this thesis show that line impedances in six-phase lines have a slight difference, compared to three-phase double circuit line. The electric and magnetic fields calculations show that, ground level electric fields of the six-phase lines decline more rapidly as the distance from center of the lines increase. The six-phase lines have a better performance on ground level magnetic field. Based on the electric and magnetic field results, right of way requirements for the six-phase lines and three-phase double circuit line were calculated. The calculation results of right of way show that six-phase lines provide higher power transfer capability with a given right of way.
