Best Answer

== == Add a capacitor or a synchronous motor or a phase advancer to the transmission line so that it can nullify the effect of inductive reactance since the above elements gives capacitive reactance. Doing this also improves the power factor.

Why leakage reactance is kept small?

Leakage reactance is useful for limiting the short circuit current in transformer and generators. therefore normally the reactance of transformer varies for 4.5% for distribution transformer to 12.5% for 400KV class.


What will the sampling distribution of the mean be if a population is normally distribution?

Also normally distributed.


What is the line voltage of a 230000 kv transmission line?

Transmission and distribution voltages are normally expressed in terms of line voltages, so the answer is that the figure you quote is a line voltage. Incidentally, do you really mean 230 megavolts for a transmission voltage?? And the symbol of kilovolt is 'kV', not 'kv'.


Why neutral is not required for vacuum circuit breaker?

Air-blast circuit breakers are used to disconnect high-voltage transmission or distribution circuits in the event of a fault. One circuit breaker is required for each of the three line conductors; there is not normally a neutral conductor in high-voltage three-phase transmission/distribution lines.


How would you characterize the distribution of scores in a normal distribution?

They are said to be Normally distributed.


Is a normally distributed variable needed to have a normally distributed sampling distribution.?

Yes, it is.


Why most of the practical loads are inductive?

Most loads are actually resistive, such as an incandescent (normal) light bulb or electric heat or cooking equipment. Other loads are mostly inductive because they incorporate either transformers or motors, which are both inductive. Off hand I cannot think of a normally capacitive circuit, which would be the opposite of inductive.


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.


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 does it mean when you say a variable is normally distributed?

It means that the probability distribution function of the variable is the Gaussian or normal distribution.


Where is the transmission fluid reservior?

There is not normally a separate reservoir for the transmission Oil is held in the bottom of the transmission case.


What is the purpose of a thyrector diode connected across normally open contacts?

To suppress transients from switching currents to possible inductive loads.
