What is the resistance of a lamp which draws 240 milliamperes when connected to a 12.6 volt battery?
The formula you are looking for is R = E/I.
What is the voltage rating of a motor on a 3 phase 4 wire 277V lighting circuit?
If the motor is a three phase the most likely voltage the motor operates on will be 480 volts.
What is the equation for power current and voltage?
1. Formula with respect to the current(I) & resistance(R)
V = I.R
2. Formula with respect to watt power(P) & current(I)
V = P/I
How voltage stays constant in a closed electrical circuit?
A voltage regulator. Examples are the 78dd series of regulators where dd is the voltage, e.g. 7805, 7812. These work with a positive rail, the 79dd regulators work with a negative rail.
What is the function for primary winding of transformer?
To limit the current flowing through the primary circuit.
Why transformer rating is called kva not kw?
Transformers are rated in KVA because that is a more accurate way to measure their capacity requirements. KWH is apparent power, while KVA is true power, and the ratio between them is power factor. The power factor is a function of the load, and not the transformer, so a poor power factor would make KWA look less to the transformer while, in fact, the true power, if not met by the transformer, could overload the transformer.
What is the average work schedule for an electrical engineer?
Full time, 8 hours a day, six days a week
How do you use a circuit breaker finder?
My unit requires you to plug in the tone generator to the outlet whose corresponding breaker you are trying to locate and turn on the tone. You then go to panel with receiver and hold button in while running the receiver up and down the panel. You will hear a tone once the breaker is located.
How do you calculate voltage efficinecy in DC voltage?
The efficiency of a device in electronics and electrical engineering is defined as useful power output divided by the total electrical power consumed.
Scroll down to related links and look at "Electrical efficiency - Wikipedia".
What is the effect of Phase sequence change in 3 phase supply?
It is important to keep the phase sequence the same throughout the system but it is more important to connect the transformers up with the right polarities. Never close a delta connection without a test fuse wire first, for correct transformer polarity connection.
its also named as potential transformers...it is one type of instrument transformers used to measure high range voltages using low range volt meters. basically it is used to extend the range of meters.
Why thyristor is also called as silicon controlled rectifier?
For the same reason that its used in transistors and resistors...Its a semiconductor.
Can you run a 415v 3 phase motor on 480 3phase?
It would not be immediately dangerous but there is a possibility of overheating with the 9% overvoltage so it isn't a good idea unless the motor is lightly loaded and watched very carefully. The safe voltage range should be marked on the motor.
Which integrated circuit chips are used in a modern computer?
The microprocessor is the most common integrated circuit chip that is used in modern computers. The microprocessor is a multipurpose, programmable device, and processes data according to instructions stored in its memory thus providing the results as output.
How much current flows through a 12 ohm flashlight bulb operating at 3.0 volts?
Ohm's Law: Voltage = current x resistance; solving for voltage, current = voltage / resistance.
Ohm's Law: Voltage = current x resistance; solving for voltage, current = voltage / resistance.
Ohm's Law: Voltage = current x resistance; solving for voltage, current = voltage / resistance.
Ohm's Law: Voltage = current x resistance; solving for voltage, current = voltage / resistance.
What happens to d.c motor when Field is weakened in DC?
when the field winding of dc motor opens the flux is zero so the speed is inversely propotional to speed ,so motor runs at dangerous speed...........
Windmill is an example of what kind of energy transformation?
Gravitational potential energy being converted to kinetic energy
(R1 * R2) / (R1 + R2) = 2 Parallel
R1 + R2 = 9 Series
Treating the two as simultaneous equations, and substituting for R1:
((9-R2) * R2) / (9 - R2 + R2) = 2
R2^2 - 9R2 + 18 = 0
Solving the quadratic, we get:
R2 = 6 ohm R1 = 3 ohm
Which you can check by substituting back into the original equations.
What is the anti pumping relay in SF6 circuit breaker?
Pumping means if breaker is close & give close command (electrical or manual) to it,spring will discharge & charge again. To prevent this pumping anti pumping feature is required,which in turn will help to restrict unnecessary operations of breaker mechanisms.
Why does your onan generator not auto start?
All depends on which one you have. But some of the new ones could be. Because of faulty control boards. Also depends on what condition your system is in.
What kind of electricity does an alternator make DC or AC?
It makes AC ( alternating current ) . That's why it's called an alternator. A DC generator would usually be called a dynamo.
A bus bar is a solid copper or aluminium bar that is used in switch gear and motor control centers. Smaller bus bars are used in central distribution panels and seen in everyday use, the bars that the household breakers plug or bolt into in a homes distribution panel. The bars in switch gear and MCC's are rated to carry a rated current. To bend a wire into the back of these types of equipment would be next to impossible due to the constraints of limited space.
Additional InformationThe word 'busbar' is derived from the word, 'omnibus', meaning to 'serve all', which is exactly what a busbar does -it serves all the circuits connected to it.
Occasionally, you see the word, 'busbar', spelt as 'bussbar' -this is an incorrect spelling which indicates a lack of knowledge of the origin of the word.
In a circuit is current proportional to resistance?
Ohms law is: I = V / R (current = voltage / resistance)
... where if the voltage or resistance changes then the current will change. ... the current and resistance is a inversely proportional linearly relationship ...
this means that if the resistance doubles then the current halfs, if the resistance halfs then the current doubles, etc...
hope this helps
