What is the maximum power generated in India?

11 kv


Why Indian power system in multiples of 11kv?

Multiples of 11 kV are used in many countries. The idea is to deliver a round number of volts so you add on 10% to allow for line losses. So 10 kV becomes 11 kV. In practice lines are operated without a 10% voltage drop now because it represents an unacceptable waste of energy, but we have stuck with 11 kV etc. Common supply voltages used for area distribution are 6.6 kV, 11 kV, 33 kV, 66 kV and 132 kV.


Voltage of a cable is 220 kv what does this mean?

The lower-case 'k' in 'kV' (not 'kv') is a multiplier, representing 'kilo', meaning 'a thousand times', and the upper-case 'V' represents 'volts', the SI unit for potential difference. So a '220-kV' cable has a line voltage (voltage between conductors) of 220 kV.


What is the different between 6.6 kv 160 a 11 kv 160 a fuses?

6.6 kV and 11 kV refer to the voltage rating of the fuse. 160A refers to the current rating. The 6.6 kV fuse is safe to use in a circuit with a voltage up to 6.6 kV and no greater. The 11 kV fuse is safe to use in a circuit with a voltage up to 11 kV.


Why differential relay is not used for 11kv transformers?

It depends what you mean by an '11-kV transformer'; do you mean a primary transformer (33/11-kV transformer) or a distribution transformer (11-kV/400-230-V transformer). Differential protection IS offered on primary transformers.


What do you mean by the Kv or Mv rating of an insulator?

The Kv marking is how many Kilavolts of electricity the insulator will take. Likewise the Mv is megavolts the rating

I think it can refer to either.


What is voltage in rotor of 11 KV AC generator?

Star (or 'wye') connected alternators have a phase voltage of 6.35 kV, and a line voltage of 11 kV. Incidentally, it's 'kV', not 'KV'.
