The measured Power in KWh will become one-third

beacause the output of one CT which is reveresed will cancel the output of other CT and therefore the final output will be from only one CT (i.e 1/3 of total output)

What happen if all the diode in bridge rectifier is reversed?

it will work as a rectifier . because the AC current to be rectified will not be effected by this change. the out put DC polarity will be changed.


Why multiplication factor of wattmeter is required?

THIS MULTIPLIER WHETHER USED FOR MEASURING POWER (WATT METER/KILOWATT METER) OR ENERGY (KILOWATT-HOUR METER) ARE USUALLY USED FOR HIGH AMPERE LOAD UNLIKE IN RESIDENTIAL APPLICATION THAT METERING ARE DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO SUPPLY LINE. THIS MULTIPLIER IS OBTAINED FROM THE RATIO OF CURRENT TRANSFORMER USED, FOR EXAMPLE 300:5 THIS MEANS YOU HAVE TO MULTIPLY YOUR GATHERED READINGS TO 60 TO HAVE THE ACTUAL CONSUMPTION. THE CURRENT TRANSFORMER (INSTRUMENT TRANSFORMER) IS NORMALLY SHAPED LIKE "DOUGHNUT" WHERE CABLE PASS THROUGH OR RECTANGULAR SHAPED FOR BUSBARS TO MEASURE ACTUAL LINE CURRENT AND COMBINED WITH POTENTIAL (VOLTAGE) TRANSFORMER FOR REMOTE METERING AND SYSTEM PROTECTION PURPOSES IN COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS OR WHERE LOAD ARE HIGHER AND FOR SAFETY PURPOSES TO PERSONNEL/TECHNICIANS.


Magnetic inrush current in power transformer with waveforms?

The mgnetic inrush current is the current drawn by the transformer when power is applied to the primary winding


The current load of a transformer is the current drawn by the?

When using a multimeter to measure a dc current are the terminals polarity conscious?

Yes, if they are reversed the reading is also reversed. On a digital meter this will usually be displayed as a negative value, but on the older style mechanical analog multimeters it may actually damage the meter by "pegging" the needle in the backwards direction and bending it causing all future readings to be wrong.

What will happen if the transformers working in parallel are not connected with regard to polarity?

when two transformer are connected in parallel condition,and the polarity of transformer are opposite to each other then a large circulating current flow through out the winding,therefore a very small current flow thro, the load .therefore lifespan of transformer will be reduced.


What would be the current if the polarity of the 8volts power unit is reversed?

Why transformers do not have poles even though it has magnetic field?

The windings of a transformer do have poles, which alternate in polarity in step with the A.C. magnetising current. As the polarity of the poles reverse, so too does the direction of the magnetic flux within the transformer's core.


How do appliances work if AC reverses direction?

AC current alternates polarity back-and-forth continually, by definition. Therefore, it is not possible to reverse AC direction. It is DC current that is directional such that when it's polarity is reversed the motor responds by turning in the opposite direction.


Why does the rotation of the motor reversed when change the polarity across the main winding coil?

When changing the auxilary face winding connection the current flow in the winding is changed so that the rotating emf direction is changed . Thats why the motor rotates in opposite direction.

Why would the negative ground drain the battery when car is off?

Because if you reversed the polarity at the battery it would blow the fuse through which current flows to the drain.


What is the procedure to polarity test a 3 phase transformer?

A 'polarity test' is conducted on a single-phase transformer, not a three-phase transformer (or transformer bank). The polarity of a single-phase transformer being important if two transformers are to be connected in parallel, or three transformers are going to be connected to form a three-phase transformer bank.'Angular displacement' is, to a three-phase transformer, what 'polarity' is to a single-phase transformer. So you really should be asking about angular displacement, rather than polarity. Angular displacement, or 'phase displacement', is the angle by which the secondary line voltage lags the primary line voltage.Angular displacement can be determined either by drawing a phasor diagram of the three-phase connection and measuring it, or by looking up the connection in a vector-group chart/table -you would nor normally 'calculate' angular displacement.


What is the difference between a current transformer and a voltage transformer?

A current transformer step downs the current in a power circuit to a lower amperage. A voltage transformer steps down the voltage in a power circuit, typically to 110 volts AC for residential and business use.


Does a galvanometer have a reversed current or not?

How you can find positive and negative in a transformer?

There is no positive and negative on a transformer. Transformers will only pass AC (alternating current), due to the fact that induction will only occur with a moving field. The current has to be changing polarity and intensity continuosly, for the current to be induced in the windings. Both terminals on the output vary, with relation to each other. Put DC into a transformer and the coils will saturate, overheat and probably burn out.


How can the output voltage of a DC generator's polarity be reversed?

The polarity of DC generator can be reversed by reversing the field current as well as direction of rotation
