A coupling capacitor in substation is used for power line communication purposes. It used after the wave trap. The capacitance ranges from 2200pf to 10,000pf. It offers very low impedance to high frequency carrier signal and allows them to enter the line matching unit and offers a very high impedance path to low frequency signal or wave and blocks it for reaching the line matching unit.
In short, it allows only those frequencies needed for communication purposes.

What is RC coupling?
rc coupling is a coupling that involves capacitor aand resistor
Purpose of capacitor bank on a sub-station electrical room?
The primary reason for a capacitor bank in an electrical substation is for power factor correction. There may also be some secondary purpose for the capacitor bank but the primary reason is power factor correction.
What is the purpose of a blocking capacitor?
At high frequency, capacitor can be considered as 1. Short Circuit in AC analysis. 2. Open Circuit in DC analysis. {because Xc= 1/(2*f*pi) where f= supply frequency,pi=3.14} As at high frequencies, in DC analysis, capacitor will be open circuited & can block the DC signal while AC signal is allowed to pass through.. Hence, this capacitor will act as a blocking capacitor for DC supply.
What is the main function of a current transformer in switchyard substation?
use of CT
Which coupling gives the higher gain in case of amplifier?
DC coupling on the input/output will always give higher gain because AC coupling involves inserting a capacitor, which adds impedance and augments the signal. AC coupling is sometimes necessary though, for such purposes as eliminating DC offset on the base of a transistor, or eliminating a DC offset in a single supply opamp circuit.
What is RC coupling?
rc coupling is a coupling that involves capacitor aand resistor
Which coupling gives the higher gain in case of amplifier - a Capacitor coupling b Impedance coupling c Transformer coupling?
transformer coupling
What is RC-coupled?
rc coupling is a coupling that involves capacitor aand resistor
In a RC coupled amplifierthe coupling capacitor is used for?
yes
Does the capacitor coupling gives the higher gain in case of amplifier?
NO. Transformer coupling gives the higher gain in case of amplifer.
Loading effect in RC coupled amplifier?
Loading of Rc coupled amplifier occurs, if you doesnt use coupling capacitors...... If avoiding input coupling capacitor the amplifier will load the function generator.. For more details go to http://mycircuits9.blogspot.com
What is the purpose of a coupling capacitor?
A coupling capacitor does the same work as its name suggests, that is coupling one stage of the electronic circuit with another. It does that without passing the DC bias voltages between stages so that these stages are not affected by each other.To block or avoid the flow of D.C and to allow only A.C
What is coupling in electronics?
AC coupling is where a capacitor is used to block the DC componant of a signal. Used often in Medical devices when a DC componant could harm a patient Coupling refers to transferring electrons trough a media. It could magnetic such as coils proximity. A transformer and yes even a capacitor. And no it has no medical devices ONLY application.
Why PNP and NPN are used in direct coupling?
To save a decoupling capacitor & biasing resistors for the PNP.
What is the use of coupling capacitor?
It allows AC current to go through, but blocks DC current.
How many type of coupling?
For most parts of electronics is concerned,there are two types of coupling in any alternating current source (AC) circuits: 1)capacitive coupling(Also known as the AC coupling) 2)Inductive Coupling(Also known as the Transformer coupling) Two circuits of different amplification factors and different hybrid parameter values can be merged or coupled by means of a capacitor (capacitive coupling) or an inductor or a transformer (inductive coupling).There are coupling coefficients involved with the transformer.But Capacitor blocks DC and allows AC most of the time.We use ceramic capacitors for this purpose.However never replace the ceramic capacitor with an electrolytic capacitor .Electrolytic capacitors are strictly polar while ceramic capacitors are not.Electrolytic capacitors are used as bypass capacitors.They bypass the current from the resistances that are parallel to them during high frequencies.This is so because the reactance of the capacitor is low at such high frequencies.Also current takes the least resistance path.As reactance gives the AC equivalent of the resistance,current flows into the capacitor while resistance and capacitors are connected end-end and thus the current reaches the other node(its like a diversion or a detour or a shortcut on the road for vehicles-analogously it is the simplest path a current can follow on the conductor
