Slip power in a induction motor?
slip power is a power which is develop by the induced voltage and current in an induction motor
What is the effect on resistance of a conducter by changing area of cross section of the conductor?
If there is only one road from City-A to City-B, the trip is slow and difficult.
If there are 15 different roads from City-A to City-B ... or a single 15-lane highway ...
then the trip is a lot faster and easier.
How many overload units are required for a 3 wire 240-volt single-phase motor?
For a 3 wire 240-volt single-phase motor, typically one overload unit would be required. The overload unit would protect the motor from overheating due to excessive current draw. It is important to select the correct size overload unit based on the motor's full load amperage.
What is oil filled self cooled type transformer?
Transformers like other electrical equipment, produce heat. The heat has to be removed to keep the temperatures below maximum levels. There are various methods to do this. Using water is a efficient method; but cannot be done directly as water can be conductive. In the 'Oil immersed water cooled method', the entire transofmer is immersed in a tank filled with insulating mineral oil. Heat from the windings and core is transfered to the insulating oil and therefore heats up the oil. Water pipes run along the tank, in contact with the oil. Heat from the oil is now transfered to the water. This is a very efficient method of cooling especially when the voltages involved are high.
What is the basic difference between relaxation oscillator and RC oscillator?
The difference between an RC and LC is that the frequency - determining device in the RC oscillator is not a tank circuit. LC can operate with A or C biasing, while RC can only operate with A.
No, current is not always the same; it can vary depending on the circuit conditions. In direct current (DC) circuits, the current remains constant over time, while in alternating current (AC) circuits, the current changes direction and magnitude periodically. Additionally, factors like resistance, voltage, and load can affect the current in a circuit at any given moment.
How do you convert mega ohm to ohm?
Ohms are the SI unit of electrical impedance. Siemens are the unit of electrical conductance. Ohms are V/A while Siemens are A/V.
Take the reciprocal of one to get the other. 100 ohms is 1/100 or 0.01 S. 1 MS or 1,000,000 S is 0.000001 ohms, 1 micro ohm. 1 mS or 0.001 S is 1000 ohms.
Is it possible that a circuit breaker can explode?
The definition of the word explosion is, a rapid expansion of gases. It may occur from physical or mechanical change. As there in no gases involved in a common circuit breaker the answer has to be a definite no. If a circuit breaker short circuits internally across the line the only thing that will happen is the safety protection up stream from the breaker will trip and take the faulted breaker off line.
What are the characteristics of resistance?
Resistance is characterized by the opposition to the flow of electric current, measured in ohms. It depends on the material's properties, such as temperature, length, and cross-sectional area. In a broader context, resistance can also refer to the ability to withstand change or pressure, manifesting in social, political, or psychological contexts. Overall, it signifies a force that impedes progress or movement in various systems.
What do you need to complete before the current will flow?
A circuit must have three basic components to make electricity flow.
1. Source of power or electricity.
2. Wires, switches and conductors through which the current can flow.
3. And finally a load to complete the circuit.
What is the calibration of the pressure instrument?
A pressure gauge is attached to the proper fitting on a bench with valves and tubing. A known weight pressurizes a piston. That pressure goes to the gauge being calibrated and the N.B.S. certified gauge. The two are compared at several points called out in the test procedure. Adjustments are made to the mechanical linkage between the gauges internal tube and the indicator needle to make it read within an allowable percentage of deviance.
How many amps per phase provide 60 KVA UPS with 400 volts?
You have a 3-phase UPS consuming 60kVA at 400V,
So, to determine the current per phase, apply the following formula:
I= S / (U x sqrt[3]) where S is apparent power (in VA)
U is line voltage (in V)
I is current per phase (in A)
thus, this gives I= 60 000/ (400 x sqrt[3])
I=86.6 amps
A stereo receiver uses a current of 2.2 amps from a 120 volt line?
The mathematical formula to solve this is P= I x R
In other owrds the amps x the voltage = watts.
2.2 amps x 120 volts = 264 watts
The potential difference across the secondary coil will be 147.42 Volts
What happens in a parrel circut if one ligt bulb is removed?
Nothing. All the light bulbs in your house are connected in parallel. In a parallel circuit the same voltage appears across all the loads, and the supply voltage is nearly constant, so if one bulb is switched off it makes no difference to the others.
How do you calculate the resistance per unit length?
It all depends on the quality of the cable and what is being sent through this cable. If we are talking audio signal, keep in mind that most audio is low powered. For example the microphone and it's transducer has a very low power, unless of course you are using Phantom Power in which case it will increase not only quality but also decrease the limitation of distance and degradation.
Yet with loudspeakers you can "get away" with some good distance (of course this is relative). I would not go more than 50' with a 18 gauge wire even if it is speakon with 4 connectors. Yet with 16 gauge or even 14 (if you can find it or you can make it) 100' is a pretty normal run.
Keep in mind the run and loss of signal is from the amplifier to the speakers, not the mixer. So to get around that issue you can use a good gauged snake to run from mixer to amp and put the amp on a stage and then connect the speakers to the amp.
What is the difference between charging by contact and charging by induction?
It normally requres two coils of wire placed close to each other. The AC field on one will induce an AC field in the other.
More chargers of portable equipment are using this method. It requires no physical contact, so reduces problems of poor contacts and can make the item more water proof.
How do i synchronize three generators in parallel using controllers?
I assume you are asking about AC generators.
The controller is wired up with suitable transducers and other control wiring to obtain required signals from the electrical bus.
Three DG sets are feeding the common bus bar through isolating breakers.
Conditions for a successful synchronization are equal voltage, equal frequency (Hertz) defined by the speed, same phase sequence. (say R Y B phases must match with R Y B of the incoming DG set)
One DG is started with some load (at least 60 to 70 % of load) and the common bus is energized. The second DG to be brought in by closing the breaker either manually or automatically. Start the second DG. The controller reads the bus parameter and incoming DG parameter in real time and moment the incoming DG parameters match with running DG parameters, controller allows the incoming breaker to close. Both DG are now synchronized and load is shared. Same way put on third DG set and synchronize.
How many amperes are there in a kilo-ampere?
Since kilo- means one thousand, there are one thousand amperes in a kilo-ampere, and there are 0.001 amperes in a kilo-ampere.
Will a 240 v 50Hz iron work in with 220v 60Hz power?
It will work fine for a simple iron.
A simple iron has no 'digital readouts' or computer circuitry. It's like a basic toaster, you apply voltage and it heats up, you remove voltage and it cools.
You may have to run the iron at a higher setting to achieve the same heat, due to the lower voltage.
most simple devices such as this are rated at a particular voltage but rarely encounter that exact voltage in real life.
The innards of a simple iron are a heater coil like you might see in a space heater, and a bi-metal switch that senses the temperature and turns off the electricity when an approximate temperature is reached.
What method improve power factor?
The most common method of improving the power factor of a load is to connected a capacitor or capacitor bank, of appropriate reactive power (expressed in reactive volt amperes), in parallel with the load.
How do you identify that capacitor is as Electrolytic capacitor?
Electrolytic capacitors look like little batteries. Any capacitor that looks like this will be electrolytic.
Another Answer
Electrolytic capacitors are polarised, so their terminals are marked with positive and negative symbols.
Is the full load current rating of a 3 phase motor referring to amps per phase?
NO, ONLY ONE. If you are measuring line current. The purpose of the line to line measurement is to know if your load is drawing balance ampere and slight difference is negligle.
What are the applications of a shaded pole motor?
When the coil in the relay needs to run off an AC signal rather than DC. The shaded pole keeps the relay from "chattering" every time the AC current crosses 0v on the sine wave.
