What is the difference between voltage restrained overcurrent protection and voltage controlled overcurrent protection?

The voltage-restrained overcurrent relay adjusts the pickup setting and characteristic curve of the overcurrent function based on the system voltage. The relay is set pickup greater than overload, and sensitivity increases as the voltage drops. The voltage-controlled overcurrent relay uses an undervoltage element to supervise the operation of the overcurrent element. When the voltage drops below a predetermined level, the undervoltage element permits the operation of the time overcurrent units. Voltage-restrained overcurrent relays can provide faster backup protection than voltagecontrolled overcurrent relays, particularly in cases where the generator voltage does not drop significantly below rated voltage during fault conditions. If the generator voltage always drops below a given voltage level for all faults in which operation is required, the voltage-controlled overcurrent unit may be set to provide faster overall clearing speed


How do you check a transformer for ac house unit?

Check that the input and output voltages are as required. Check that the transformer is big enough for the current required for the unit you have.


Can you use transformer for DC supply?

No. Only Transformer could not be used for DC supply.If yoy need to have DC out put,then rectifier unit required .

What is the current in 1KVA Transformer?

Tis question is incompleet.1000 va =1 kva.This is the power capacity of transformer. A transformer having 2 currents Primary current and secondary current . for that we required both voltage. Simply we can calculate by a formula Voltage x Current x 0.8(power factor)=1000.

Ring final circuits in domestic properties usually require a protective device which is rated at?

According to BS7671:2008, Requirements for Electrical Installations, an overcurrent protection device rated at either 30 A or 32 A is required.


What size overcurrent protection device is required to protect the secondary of a three phase 75kva and 208 v transformer supplying a 150 amp continuous load?

If you're asking about load sizing, I think you already have the answer (at least 150A, although you could go up to 208 for full load, and maybe higher if you can overload the transformer). If you're talking about short circuit rating, you have entirely the wrong information. Short circuit rating will tell you if the fuse (if you're using fusing) mounting is rated to interrupt the available fault current.


Can a water sprinkler system be used for transformer fire protection?

Yes, there is a well-defined standard for "water-mist" sprinkler systems for protection of electrical transformers and switch-gear, including required minimum spacing according to the voltages present.

What is the KVA rating required of the testing transformer?

Depends on the kva rating of the devices to be tested using a transformer.


What are the purposes of performing no load test for the transformer?

These two tests are performed on a transformer to determine (i) equivalent circuit of transformer(ii)voltage regulation of transformer(iii) efficiency of transformer. The power required for theseOpen Circuit test and Short Circuit test on transformeris equal to the power loss occurring in the transformer.


How much oil in liters required for sealed type 95 KV 1200mA - TR Set transformer?

That depends on the model of the transformer. I have seen transformers that required 7500 liters and some that needed 2,5 liters.

Is surge protection required on electrical wire leaving the building?

Surge protection is not required in residential environments. However. It is recommended. For commercial, it depends on the city code but usually not required


Why zigzag connection in transformer is required?

A zigzag transformer is used in connection with 3 phase and is made up of 6 coils connected in a "Y" manner. Each leg of the "Y" is made up of a coil on a different phase leg of the transformer. The neutral formed by the zigzag connection is very stable. Therefore, this type of transformer, or in some cases an auto transformer, lends itself very well for establishing a neutral for an ungrounded 3 phase system. Many times this type of transformer or auto transformer, lends itself very well for establishing a neutral for an ungrounded 3 phase system. Many times this type of transformer or auto transformer will carry a fairly large rating, yet physically be relatively small. This particularly applies in connection with grounding applications. The reason for this small size in relation to the nameplate KVA rating is due to the fact that many types of grounding auto transformers are rated for 2 seconds. This is based on the time to operate an overcurrent protection device such as a breaker. Zigzag transformers used to be employed to enable size reductions in drive motor systems due to the stable wave form they present. Other means are now more common, such as 6 phase star.
