Is US using 13.2kv in primary line distribution?

Yes, many parts of the US use 13.2 kV in primary line distribution systems. That is phase to phase. Phase to ground is 7620 V.

Which is greater 6.375 microwatts or 29.814 microwatts?

29.814 microwatts is clearly greater than 6.375 microwatts.

What is a Rotor Tilling Machine?

It is actually a "Rotor Tiller". A rotor tiller is a machine that has blades and is used to break up soil in the ground for gardening or landscaping. After the plants start to grow, it can be used to aerate the soil in between rows of plantings. You could use you browsers search capabilities also, just type in "rotor tiller" into the search box and search the web for more info on sizes and kinds of rotor tillers. Some web sites can display pictures and detailed desriptions, like engine size and number of blades also.

What is one thousand units of electrical power?

A 'unit' is short for 'Board of Trade Unit' (formerly, the Government agency that used to regulate energy prices), and is used in the UK as an alternative name for a kilowatt hour and is, therefore, used to measure energy, NOT power. One thousand units, therefore, is equivalent to 1000 kWh.

What is the function of burden resistors?

To load a circuit to a specific resistance value. This is useful in impedance matching networks, power transmission, telecommunications, etc.

Can voltage across an element be greater than the applied voltage in an ac circuit?

Yes, if there is a step up coil in the circuit. Coils can change voltage and amps in any given circuit. If the voltage is increased, than the amperage is decreased (or vice versa). This is how an ignition coil in a car works. A 14 volt auto electrical system can have 1000 volts across the spark plugs.

Without a coil, I know of no other way voltage in any part of a circuit can be higher than applied voltage. A 1000V? TRY 30 KV TO 40 KV @80-100MW

Define a direct short?

When there is a connection across both the positive and negative voltages.

What is the temperature coefficient of resistance?

The temperature coefficient of resistance is a number used to predict how the resistance of a material changes with changes in temperature. Typically the units are either resistance per temperature or 1/temperature depending on which equation is used for the calculations. For example, in copper the temperature coefficient of resistance is about 0.0039 per change in degrees Celsius. A positive temperature coefficient of resistance means that the resistance of the material will increase as temperature increases.

As per the equation or say unit of resistance temperature coefficient, its definition can be given as below:

" Rise in temperature per unit initial resistance, when temperature is raised by one degree Celsius is called the resistance temperature coefficient."

Left Surround (side): Blue

Right Surround (side): Gray

Left Back Surround: Brown

Right Back Surround: Tan

Sub woofer Line-Level Output (RCA): Purple

Why is there a need to follow certain standard specifications in making electrical connections in buildings and homes?

In the North American market the electrical code is based on safety standards. If an electrical fault causes damage or death, the reason as to why is established and a code written or re written so as to not have the event happen again. By having everyone use the same safety standard all installations are wired the same. This means that electricians and maintenance people will know what to expect when working on electrical installations. By maintaining this same standard throughout the industry, a level of safety is also maintained throughout the industry.

What is LRPDV?

LRPDV is Locked Rotor Pull-down Voltage.

What are the uses and applications of Meld's experiment?

Melde's experiment teaches us creation of standing waves. I think we can create a great product of neutralising the sounds by creating sounds with same wave length and frequency as the source. ex: if you know exactly the frequency of any machine ( say an aeroplane flying over your building every day during take off and landing) and if you can measure the wave length of sounds that machine creates..create a product that can create similar waves in opposite direction.so that they undergo mechanical interference and the machine sound is neutralised.

Bingo!

Where is the servo motor that swaps the vent door from the cooling coil to the heater coil on a 1998 Oldsmobile intrigue?

Before looking for the servo check your vaccum line from the back of the engine it goes across the firewall down the passenger side-inside fenderwell, then und&er the battery and back to the lower firewall. Lots of Intrigues battery aicid eat this little black line into around the battery box. This creates no vaccum to the heat & air door controls.

When shall you use class x CT?

in substation protection

To be connected to unit protection relays (i.e. differential, REF, Dist., etc.)

If an EMF of 1 volt causes a current of 1 ampere what is the resistance of the material through which the current is flowing?

1/1 = 1ohm MR. volta [italian] Determined that it would take 1 volt to pass 1 amp trough a 1 ohm resistor MR ampere [ french] Ditermined that it would take 1 ohm and 1 volt to pass one ampere MR ohms [english] determinaed that for 1 volt and one ampere the resistance must be 1 ohm. mr watts determined that the product of volts x ampere will equal one watt [power]

What causes speed drop in motor?

1) If current, at 'on load' condition, reach or cross its rated value, then the speed of the motor will be decreased.

2) If there is any voltage droop occurs in the incoming supply then the speed of the motor will be decreased.

What does it mean when voltage and resistance are in phase?

The voltage across a resistance is in phase with the current through the resistance because the resitance in non-reactive, i.e. non-inductive and non-capacitative.

In the inductive case, the load resists a change in current. In the capacitative case, the load resists a change in voltage. In the resistive case, the load current follows the voltage with no delay, hence there is no phase differential.

How many hertz in direct current?

Direct current has no frequency, it has voltage. also it has current that is measured in Amperes which is dependable of the resistance of the circuit. Alternating current has frequency because the electricity flows alternatively on both directions. If the frequency of AC is 50hz/s it means that the electricity flows forwards and backwards 50 times per second.
