the inductive load which is generally use in high voltage transmission line known as transformer. the transformer transform the high voltage to low voltage.


How a transformer is so important?

Transformers transform low vvoltages to hivh and vice versa. This is important in transmitting electrical power form the high voltage power plant to the low voltage home voltage. Using high voltage transmission reduces transmission power losses, I2R.


What is service mains in power transmission system?

A 'service mains' is not associated with an electricity 'transmission' system, but with a low-voltage 'distribution' system. The service mains is the name given to the cable that connects a building to the low-voltage mains supply.


What are grid station?

Grid stations are the station which reduce the High Voltage to Low Voltage and increase the Current, the Current is Low and Voltage is High at the Generation Plant to reduce the energy losses during transmission of Electricity.


High voltage current is needed for transmission but is low voltage is more useful?

A: Power transmission is in the range of 500 kilo volts as someone can tell the hi towers are far above ground and each phase is separated by ceramic insulators. Low voltage is necessary to manage these power safely to homes and business. That is why transmission becomes distributions and finally local power to us.

Why you use current source in data transmission?

A: The main advantage for a current source transmission is low source impedance. extraneous voltage influence is reduced by that characteristic.

How are lower voltages combined into higher voltages for transmission?

Low voltages are not 'combined into higher voltages' for transmission! The lower voltage (e.g. the voltage generated at a power station) is applied to the primary winding of a large power transformer, and the required higher transmission voltage then appears across the transformer's secondary winding. The magnitude of the secondary voltage is determined by the turns ratio of the transformer's windings.


When the voltage of the electric current produced by a generating plant is lower than the voltage of the current carried by transmission lines?

Yes, that's because the voltage output of an alternator is restricted by the number of windings that can be slotted into its armature, restricting its output voltage to just 25-30 kV, which is far too low for transmission purposes.


What band is low voltage in is it band?

The text of the question doesn't make sense, but low voltage is anything below 60 volts, except in terms of power transmission, in which case its anything less than 600 volts.
