Understanding the calculation of Geometric Mean Radius (GMR) and Geometric Mean Distance (GMD) in high voltage transmission line analysis is crucial for electrical engineering students. Traditional teaching methods have several obstacles when delivering learning about complex concepts effectively. This research presents the development of an interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) based learning tool designed to improve students' understanding of GMR and GMD calculations in transmission line analysis. The software was developed using MATLAB/GUI programming, integrating visual elements and real-time calculation features in analyzing the relationship between conductor arrays and their electrical parameters. The software allows users to input various transmission line configurations and instantly and visualize the calculation of GMR-GMD, voltage regulation, and efficiency parameters. Validation of the software was done by comparing the results with manual calculations and industry standard software, showing an accuracy rate of 98.5%. Initial implementation in a classroom setting showed significant improvement in student understanding, with an 85% increase in understanding of transmission line parameters compared to conventional learning methods. This learning tool bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, providing an effective platform for teaching and learning complex transmission line concepts. The developed GUI offers a promising solution for modern electrical engineering education, particularly in electrical power transmission courses.
