The higher-voltage line will have longer insulators and the line conductors will be further apart. And the symbol for kilovolt is 'kV', not 'kv'.

What is the difference between HT and LT line?

ht cable that means voltage level is high , it is obvious that power is going to remain same ,so if voltage rises ,current has to be lowered .since current level is less in ht cable therefore size (dia) is less compared to l.t cable , (p=v.i),lt cable current rating is more and voltage rating is less


Why is the voltage drop large in a high voltage transmission line?

The length of the wire causes resistive load to be distributed along line. This accumulated resistance causes the voltage drop.AnswerThe voltage drop along a high-voltage transmission line isn't large in relation to the operating voltage of the line. One of the advantages (there are many) of using high voltages is that, for a given load, the line current is relatively low -so the voltage drop along the line is also relatively low.


What is a 132 KV line isolator?

An isolator (disconnector in US terminology) is a switch designed to isolate a section of line afterthat line has been de-energised using a circuit breaker, allowing maintenance work to be carried out on the de-energised section.It's function is to provide a visual break between an energised line and a section of de-energised line and, therefore, is usually one of a pair (one at opposite ends of the de-energised section).Isolators are generally not designed to break load currents (and definitly NOT fault currents!!), so the line must be de-energised using a circuit breaker before the isolator is opened, and the isolator must be closed before the circuit breaker is then used to reclose the line.


How are engineers using wind turbines in the modern world Some fud be a hero and tell is?

The main use for a wind turbine is to drive a geared alternator mounted at the hub of the rotor. The blades rotate at some speed around 29 rpm, and that is stepped up in a gearbox to drive the generator at a more normal speed for an electric generator. The output power is fed to the local distribution grid, at 33 kV for the smaller wind farms or 132 V for the larger ones.


Can you use the vacuum circuit breaker instant of air circuit breaker?

Actually ACB isused for Low Tension side and VCB is used for High Tension Side..Chappa matter
