What is the rising main unit in electrical distribution?
This is the distribution of power through copper bus bar
What is MDB and SMDB in electrical?
MDB= Main Distribution Board, it is usually fed from a substation and supplies electricity to a Sub Main Distribution Board ( SMDB ) The SMDB goes on to supply electricity for a panel
What is pocket substation?
the pocket substation have three major parts and they are transformer , ring main unit (RMU) and low voltage distribution bored (LVDB).
What is the difference between autotransformer and two winding transformer?
Main difference is that , that the auto_t is electrical based while the other t is based on mutual inductance.
What do you mean by package substation?
Prefabricated power distribution substation Its basically a whole 11kv substation but in one unit. It contains a transformer, ring main unit, fuse board and circuit breakers etc. It still uses as much space as a normal substation that houses a separate transformer, ring main unit etc but is easier to transport and is probably cheaper.
What is rmu in electrical?
Ring Main Unit. Ring main unit is used in a secondary distribution system. It is basically used for an uninterrupted power supply. Alongside, it also protects your secondary side transformer from the occasional transient currents.

What is different between feeder breaker and motor breaker?
You have to be careful with terms in the electrical field, Example: Main Feeder Circuits will feed a Transformer for distribution and each of those main circuits might feed numbeous Motor control centers. However each of those circuits could be called a main feeder for the motor control center. Confusing. We have High Voltage Transmittion tansformered down for Distribution. So normally a Feeder Breaker will feed Main circuits that will be used for distribution. Example Your home panel will have a main feeder circuit to the whole panel and distribution breakers to you home.
What is pocket substation?
the pocket substation have three major parts and they are transformer , ring main unit (RMU) and low voltage distribution bored (LVDB).
What is RMU?
An 'RMU' is a 'ring-main unit', a type of switchgear used to connect distribution transformers to an underground, secondary-distribution (11 kV in the UK), cable ring-main system. It enables the transformer to be disconnected from the ring main, and it also enables the ring main itself to be 'split' where the RMU is installed. Each of the three switches within an RMU usually incorporates an 'earth' (ground) position, which will enable either the transformer itself, or the ring main to be earthed for safety reasons before any maintenance work can proceed.
What is the difference between autotransformer and two winding transformer?
Main difference is that , that the auto_t is electrical based while the other t is based on mutual inductance.
What is meaning ring main unit RMU and application?
A ring-main unit is a piece of switchgear used on high-voltage distribution ring-main systems (e.g. in the UK at 11 kV). Essentially, it's three switches incorporated into one device used to connect a transformer to a high-voltage ring main. It allows the transformer to be connected/disconnected to the ring main and it also allows the ring main to be 'broken'. Each of the switches has three positions: open, closed, or earthed (grounded); the earth position allows the transformer or either (or both) halves of the ring main to be earthed when maintenance is required.
What is the purpose of main switches?
The main breaker limits the overall current to the building. Most buildings have many branch circuits that sum to more current than the service is rated for. This is not a problem as all the branch circuits are not used under high current draws at the same time. The main breaker protects the main wiring in the meter and to the transformer, and the transformer itself, from heavy current loads. It also protects from shorts in the main distribution panel.
What is the usage of transformer?
The usage of transformer is to produce electricity from a main electric unit
What is a sub main distribution board?
A sub main is a distribution board fed from the main distribution board panel normally protected via a CPD.
What do you mean by packages?
Prefabricated power distribution substation Its basically a whole 11kv substation but in one unit. It contains a transformer, ring main unit, fuse board and circuit breakers etc. It still uses as much space as a normal substation that houses a separate transformer, ring main unit etc but is easier to transport and is probably cheaper.
