Why the generating stations produce 11kv voltage and it step up to 33kv during transmission.. why we should not use 230volts to generated and can step up to 11kv.. why?

if we take 11kv /33kv yhe current produced will be less when compared to 230v/11kv.. the curent produced will be gerater than 1000amp or above
so the winding of the Transformers will damage because thier is no winding at present to with stand the huge amount of current

Why negative impulse is applied during Impulse voltage test?
The lightning phenomena is occurred on transmission lines or sub-stations due to which a negative wave is generated hence definitely destroy the power apparatus. So for impulse voltage testing of any power apparatus one must produce a negative impulse.
Why would it be advisable for a householder to remain connected to the national grid?
So that, as a user of electricity, he or she does not have to rely on only one local power generating station. A National Grid is a network of electricity supply lines carrying power from various generating stations There is usually more than one supply line to most points (or grid nodes), from more than one generating station. So, by using a National Grid, users can continue to receive power from the other power stations in the network whenever a power station or a distribution sub-station has to be taken out of service for maintenance work or when some power lines are destroyed by bad weather.
How is hydroelectric energy be used in homes and businesses?
Whether the electricity is generated by conventional power stations, or hydroelectric power generation, the electricity used in homes and businesses will still be the same, and used the same.
What is a system that links electricity produced in power stations to deliver it to where it is needed?
Power Systems or Transmission & Distribution
What is the working of a switch yard?
A switchyard is essentially a hub for electrical power sources. For instance, a switchyard will exist at a generating station to coordinate the exchange of power between the generators and the transmission lines in the area. A switchyard will also exist when high voltage lines need to be converted to lower voltage for distribution to consumers. Therefore a switchyard will contain; current carrying conductors, grounding wires and switches, transformers, disconnects, remotely controlled arc snuffing breakers, metering devices, etc.
What are the applications of battery at generating stations?
The applications of battery at the generating stations is that they are used for applications maintenance and test schedules.
What is the Need of electrical grid?
Generally in Electrical Engineering, "GRID" means network of power circuits spread acroos a large area. Involves huge lengths of transmission and distribution lines, generating stations, receving stations across the area. Such grids facilitate the proper power flow between generating station and the end user sub stations. Imagine a many different types of generating stations, located gew hundred KM away in all directionsin a country, connected through network of power cables and transformers.
Where are 3 places on earth that nuclear power plants are located?
Bruce Nuclear Generating Stations- Kincardine, Ontario, Canada Pickering Nuclear Generating Stations- Pickering, Ontario, Canada Darlington Nuclear Generating Station- Bowmanville, Ontario, Canada
Why switchboard is an important equipment in any generating stations?
control everything
Which of the generating stations has the minimum running cost?
hydro-electric station
What are power lines used for?
Answer youtubeAnswerThere are two categories of 'power lines': 'transmission lines' and 'distribution lines'. Transmission lines comprise lines supported by transmission towers ('pylons') and distribution lines comprise lines supported by poles. In both cases, their function is to transport electrical energy from the generating stations to the consumer. Transmission lines are normally part of the grid system, a network which links many generating stations and load centres (usually located near large towns, for example); distribution lines link these load centres to consumers -factories, commercial buildings, residences.
Do nuclear generating stations have an effect on the environment?
yes nuclear generating have an effect on the enviroment because it pollutes our water when the cooling water goes in and out of the boiler
What is a example of alternating current?
in the generating stations we generate only alternating current...this is the best example
Which method of generating electricity produces carbon dioxide?
Coal power stations will give off CO2 emissions.
What are some things that use natural electricity?
all the kitchen supplies like microwave and fridges and televisions and of course light. By 'natural electricity' I presume you mean electricity not deliberately generated by man-made generating stations etc. There are lightning flashes and some fish that stun by internally-made electricity.
How bernoulli's equation is applied in hydroelectric generating stations?
It is used to determine the force on the turbine blades as water passes over them.
How do nuclear power stations operate?
Basically, all power stations adopt the same method to produce electricity. A turbine is caused torotate. A generator is attached to the shaft of the turbine. As the turbine turns, electricity is produced inthe generator. This electricity is sent out through transmission lines to a distribution station of theElectricity Board.In hydroelectric power stations, the turbine is turned by flowing water. In thermal power stations,steam is produced by heating water in a furnace which burns coal or oil. In nuclear power stations, thesteam is produced by the heat generated in the fission process.
