How you check the elcb is working or not?

By simulating a earth leak on the device connected to ELCB. A short between phase and the body or earth point. Care must be taken. It must be done by a trained Electrician only. It is dangerous to do it.

What value for a transformer determines the amount of voltage that is stepped up or down?

For an ideal transformer, the voltage ratio is exactly the same as its turns ratio. So if, for example, there are twice as many turns on the secondary winding as there are on the primary winding, then the secondary voltage will be twice that of the primary and the transformer will be a 'step up' type.

What are the causes for decomposition of transformer oil and how is this detected?

A major cause of decomposition of transformer oil is minor arcing within the transformer. Decomposition results in gas which bubbles towards the top of the transformer and upward into the conservatory tank. Between the transformer and conservator tank is a Buchholz relay, in which this gas collects, causing a mercury switch inside a float to initiate an alarm in the substation. This gas can be collected through a small pipe feeding from the Buchholz relay in order to have it analysed.

What charging current will be optimum for Ni-Mh 1.2v 800mah battery?

I have designed many charging circuits and generally we try to keep the max recharging rate of around 10% of the battery's discharge rating. For your Nickel-Metal-Hydride (Ni-Mh) battery that would be a maximum of 80 to 100 Ma.

What is the purpose of commutator?

To reverse the direction of the current, and keep the thing ( rotor, armature) going in one direction. The older term, applied to some automobile use, was timer. The French correctly refer to the Balance Wheel of a watch as a commutator, using the French spelling of commutateur. Some expensive watches had solid Gold commuator screws on the balance wheel!

Draw and explain the UJT characteristics?

The Unijunction emitter current vs voltage characteristic curve figure(a) shows that as VE increases, current IE increases up IP at the peak point. Beyond the peak point, current increases as voltage decreases in the negative resistance region. The voltage reaches a minimum at the valley point. The resistance of RB1, the saturation resistance is lowest at the valley point.

Ip and Iv, are datasheet parameters; For a 2n2647, IPpand IVvare 2µA and 4mA, respectively. Vp is the voltage drop across RB1 plus a 0.7V diode drop; see Figure (b). Vv is estimated to be approximately 10% of VBB.

How long will a 1000VA inverter provides backup power with 100 Amps Battery for 3 fans 3 lights and 1 tv?

The running time depends on two things: the actual power the inverter can supply, and the actual power drain of the loads.

A 1000 VA inverter may be able to supply 1000 VA, but it battery size determines *how long* it can supply power for. A 100 amp battery can probably supply 10 amps for 10 hours (100 amp-hours), but it may only supply 100 amps for perhaps 45 minutes - if it does not overheat! Generally, batteries give less effective power at higher power drain.

You also need to know how efficient your inverter is - it may be 90%-plus, it may be as bad as 75% or less.

So you will need to (1) find out how much power your appliances draw (let's say its 300 watts), then (2) examine the specifications for the inverter-battery combination to discover how long they can support your power drain.

Be aware that 300 watts load is over 25 amps current drain at 12 volts, so you are already getting away from the 100 amp rating, to a lower value due to the high power drain on the battery.

What is the diversity factor of full load transformer?

Diversity factor is the ratio between sum of each individual maximum demand and the total maximum demand.

There are several equipment with different connected load and its maximum demand in an industry. Each equipment maximum demand could be different and might occur at different times. A well estimated or measured diversity factor would tell as to what percentage of total maximum load would actually occur. Diversity factor is always less than 1.

Diversity factor has to be obtained either by measuring the actual sum of each individual load and maximum demand or estimated and has relation to the transformer full load .

Why is Japan's electrical distribution split up into the two power frequencies of 50Hz and 60Hz?

Power companies in the west purchased 60Hz equipment, and companies in the east purchased 50Hz equipment. This was back in the late 1800's to early 1900's. It would be cost prohibitive to replace all the 50Hz equipment with 60Hz, or vice versa at this point, so both are used.

What are the advantages of two phase locking?

--guarantees serializability

--The protocol utilizes locks that block other transactions from accessing the

same data during a transaction's life.

What is the standard wire color of the negative or signal or return wire in an instrumentation Black White pair used in a DC 4 to 20mA loop?

There really is no standard color for this. Most that I have seen use the Black as the positive (+) and the white as negative (-) but I have also seen it the other way around. Just follow the convention of the plant or customer where you are working.

What is current value after derating factor considered?

Once derating factor is considered the size of cable for perticular electrical load increased by the multipling factor.i,e if 2.5MM2 cable is capable to carry 14amp. of current in general then with 40% of derating fator it can carry only 8.4amp.

What are the characteristics of ceramics?

Physical properties means the behavior of materials in response to physical forces other than mechanical, such as; Volumetric, thermal, electric and electrochemical properties. Most Ceramics are lighter than metals but heavier than polymers.

Most ceramics have a higher melting point than most metals as it is that some ceramics such as China can with stand high temperatures to about 1200 degrees centigrade. Ceramics also has lower Electrical and Thermal Conductivity than most metals but the range of value is greater in ceramics permitting some ceramics to be used as insulators, for example Porcelain insulators and others as conductors like Lithium-ion conducting glass-ceramics and oxide ceramics.

Thermal expansion is another physical property of ceramics, Ceramic thermal expansion coefficients are less than those of metals but effects are more damaging in ceramics bringing about cracks and other failures(Thermal shock and thermal cracking) as for ceramic materials with relatively high thermal expansion and low thermal conductivity however there is glass ceramics that has low thermal expansion thus resisting thermal shock and thermal cracking, for example Pyrex glass ceramics. Thus the physical properties being but not limited to permeability, elasticity, considerable strength, hardness, brittleness, resistance to chemical attack and thermal shock.

What is the relationship between the voltage output at the interface and the voltage across the series and parallel circuit?

Ohm's law states that the current in a circuit is inversely proportional to the circuit resistance. There is a single path for current in a series circuit. The amount of current is determined by the total resistance of the circuit and the applied voltage.

Why oc test done in lv side?

In OC test , the equipments are connected in LV side since we need to get rated voltage . if it is cinnected in HV side the value of voltage will be less and current wil be more.Hence the ordinary instruments cannot measure this value of current

What is the difference between gas cycle and sedimentary cycle?

Biogeochemical cycles are basically of two types:

a) Gaseous cycles like carbon (as carbon dioxide), oxygen, nitrogen, etc.

b) Sedimentary cycles like sulphur, phosphorus, etc.

In gaseous cycles, the elements have a main reservoir in the gaseous phase, and the reservoir pool is the atmosphere or water. The biogenetic materials involved in circulation pass through a gaseous phase before completing the cycle.

In sedimentary cycles, the elements main reservoir pool is lithosphere and the biogenetic materials involved in circulation are non-gaseous. The sedimentary cycles are usually very slow as the elements may get locked up in rocks and go out of circulation for long periods.

A switch is connected in a series with a 75-W bulb to a source of 120V. what is the potential difference across the switch when it is closed?

If the switch, light bulb, and source are all connected in series and the switch is ideal (has no resistance), then the switch acts as a short. There is no potential difference across the short.

What does the terminology - radial feed - mean in relationship to transformers?

This terminology usually refers to pad mounted transformers. A "radial feed " transformer is a transformer that has one bushing for the high voltage cable line. The high voltage cable terminates into the transformer through the transformer's bushing. There is no second bushing for the high voltage cable to continue further down the line. This type of transformer is usually on the end of a loop feed circuit.

This is different from a "loop feed" transformer whose incoming cables are terminated at the primary bushings. On this type of transformer there is a second bushing which connects to the outgoing primary voltage cables that allows the primary to feed another transformer. Each pad mount transformer's secondary feed usually supplies enough power to connect up to four homes.

In bjt small signal analysis in emitter stablization bias the circuit which have re unbypassed when trying to get zb the impedance why you divided vi by ib although that that both resistances beta r?

//you tell us and we'll both know

assuming that you have used h-parameter analysis for this ...Vb contains the Ib and the Ie terms which can be expressed ad Ie=(1+Hfe)Ib

then we have

Vb=Hie*Ib + Re*Ie
=Hie*Ib + Re(1+Hfe)Ib
=Ib(Hie+(1+Hfe) Re)

then we can find
Ri as Vb/Ib= Hie+(1+Hfe)*Re

hope that helps....
