How do you calculate short circuit capacity of generator by using reactance of the winding?

The short circuit capacity of a generator can be calculated by dividing the generator's reactance by the sum of the generator's reactance and the total reactance of the system. This ratio will give you the short circuit capacity of the generator in relation to the total system capacity.


When are voltage and current out of phase?

Because the impedance of the inductor and capacitor is not a real resistance / has an imaginary value that causes voltage and current to be out of phase. An inductor's impedance is equivalent to j*w*L (j = i = imaginary number, w = frequency in radians, L = inductance), while a capacitor's impedance is 1/ (j*w*C). The 'j' causes the phase shift.


Can a voltmeter increase voltage?

No, a voltmeter measures voltage in a circuit but cannot increase it. It is a passive device that is simply used to read the voltage at a specific point in the circuit.


What is the voltage of the metal crossbar?

The voltage of a metal crossbar would depend on the electrical circuit it is a part of. In an electrical circuit, voltage is the potential difference between two points and is measured in volts. If you provide more context or details about the circuit, I can help determine the specific voltage of the crossbar.


What is the purpose of conducting sc and oc test of single phase transformer?

The purpose of conducting sc (short circuit) and oc (open circuit) tests on a single-phase transformer is to determine its equivalent circuit parameters, such as the winding resistance, leakage reactance, and magnetizing reactance. These tests help to evaluate the transformer's performance and efficiency under various operating conditions.

What is reactance of electric cable?

'Reactance' is the name given to the opposition to the flow of alternating current, due to the inductance of a load and the frequency of the supply voltage. It is measured in ohms.


What is difference in resistance and reactance?

Resistance is a concept used for DC. the current through a resistance is in phase with the applied voltage Reactance is used for AC the current through a inductive reactance lags the applied voltage by 90 degrees. the current through capacitive reactance leads the applied voltage by 90 degrees. the net reactance is the difference between inductive and capacitive reactance


Can you apply law of ohm in alternating current and voltage?

Yes, but you need to convert inductance and capacitance to reactance.


Why is there a difference in current in a coil when you apply dc voltage and then AC voltage to it?

A coil has both resistance and inductance. When you apply a d.c. voltage, the opposition to current is the resistance of the coil. When you apply an a.c. voltage, the opposition to current is impedance -the vector-sum of the coil's resistance and its inductive reactance. Inductive reactance is proportional to the inductance of the coil and the frequency of the supply.


Does reactance increase with an increase in inductance?

Inductive reactance case of ac) is equivalent to resistance (in case of dc) for inductors.So if resistance increases current decreasesas well as if inductive reactance increases current decreases

What is RL circuit in ac voltage?

An RL circuit is a circuit containing resistance (R) and an inductance (L).


Why inductance value is negative?

Inductance is not negative. It is measured in henrys, and that is a positive value. Inductive reactance, however, is measured in ohms, and is commonly shown as negative to indicate that the current lags the voltage.


When the frequency of an applied voltage is increased the capacitive reactance of a circuit will?

Since capacitive reactance is inversely-proportional to the supply frequency, as the frequency is increased, the reactance will decrease.


What is induction and inductive reactance?

resistance is real, the other purely imaginary.AnswerResistance is the opposition to the flow of current (AC or DC) which is proportional to a conductor's cross-sectional area and resistivity, and inversely proportional to its length. Reactance is the opposition to AC current due to either the circuit's inductance or its capacitance, and are termed inductive reactance and capacitive reactance. Resistance and reactance are both measured in ohms.Inductive reactance is proportional to the circuit's inductance and the frequency of the supply; capacitive reactance is inversely proportional to the circuit's capacitance and the frequency of its supply. In other words, inductive reactance increases with frequency, whereas capacitive reactance decreases with frequency.All AC circuits contain resistance, and most contain some degree of inductance and/or capacitance. So the opposition offered by a circuit to AC current includes resistance together with some combination of inductive and/or capacitive reactance.It's incorrect to suggest that reactance is 'imaginary'in the every day sense of the word -it exists, so it must be 'real'. In this context, 'imaginary' is a mathematical term that indicates that if resistance and reactance were represented in a vector diagram (called an 'impedence diagram'), then reactance quantity would lie at right-angles to the resistance quantity. For this reason, the overall opposition to current flow, which is called impedance, is not the algebraic sum of resistance and reactance, but the vector sum of the two. So, for example, if a circuit had a resistance of, say, 4 ohms, and its inductive reactance was 3 ohms, then its impedance would be 5 ohms -not 7 ohms.Although we can represent resistance and reactance using a vector diagram (impedance diagram), strictly-speaking the quantities themselves are not vector quantities. The impedance diagram is created as a result of a phasor (vector) diagram representing the current and voltage relationships in the AC circuit.


What is the units of inductance?

Inductive reactance, as well as capacitive reactance, is measured in ohms.


Why is capacitive voltage higher than inductive voltage in an R-L-C circuit?

It isn't necessarily so. The capacitive voltage is the product of the current and capacitive reactance, while the inductive voltage is the product of the current and the inductive reactance. So it depends whether the capacitive reactance is greater or smaller than the inductive reactance!
