What is a resistor on an electric circuit made of?
The opposition of a body or substance to current passing through it, resulting in a change of electrical energy into heat or another form of energy. So it could be any substance.
From 68.191.13.211. Now would someone out there add to what you have sen so far. Then we will all be more aware of the exact nature of the resistance.
Why diaphragm of a pressure gauge is corrugated?
These are corrugated to increase the sensitivity of the pressure gauge.
Nowadays there's a much bigger difference in price based on quality and capabilities rather than type... the cheapest models of each are roughly comparable.
What is lighting impulse test on disconnector?
Lightning Impulse withstand test is a destructive test carried out on high voltage switchgear. It is classed as a destructive test as each shot damages the insulation and lays carbon tracks.
The Energy Networks Association Technical Specification (ENA-TS) 41-36 states the BIL (basic Impulse level) Required for the Voltage rating of the piece of switchgear rated up to 36kV.
For example an 11kV switchgear will have a BIL of 95kV.
Switchgear which include a Vacuum circuit breaker must have a second means of isolation, ie a disconnector. This disconnector can be a two position (mains on, off) or three position (mains on, off, or earth on) disconnector operated off load which is in series with the Circuit breaker.
To pass the test 15 shots at +95kV and 15 shots at -95kV are fired at all positions of the disconnector and only 2 out of the 15 (and not the last 5) shots can flash over to earth.
For example if the disconnector was in the off position one side will be connected to the impulse generator and the other side will be earthed. Positive and Negative shots will be fired and the impulse can not flash through the air gap to the earthed side of the disconnector.
This proves the isolation gap inside the disconnector has a BIL rating of 95kV.
Therefore if the incoming side of a switchboard is live and the outgoing side is isolated for maintenance. There can be a transient impulse on the live side of the circuit and it will not flash across the isolating gap and endanger anyone working on the dead side of the circuit
Why armour HT XLPE power cable required to Earth?
because when ever fault current occurs then the cable wont get damaged due to cable armored earthing to the gland for fault current to pass through groung
Why you use two switches on PLC for start and stop?
The reason you have to use two switches (a combination of start and stop push button) on PLC is because it is how the program is written.
Single phase 10hp motor how much kva generator needed?
10 HP is 7.46 kW theoretically, but allowing for an 0.7 power factor the kVA goes up to 10.5 kVA. Add 20% for sundry losses and you get 12.5 kVA
Is hm2007 available in Pakistan?
It is not. I did a project with it so I have some. Contact me @xmatthenryx
Why use breather in transformer?
Larger transformers, such as power and distribution transformers, are filled with oil which acts to insulate and cool the transformer's windings. In order to allow the oil to expand and contract, a breathing vent is required. These breathers are normally vented through a chamber containing silica gel, which acts to dry any moisture-laden air when it enters the transformer.
Core loss of an induction motor?
Just like a transformer, the core losses are a combination of eddy current losses and hysteresis losses.
How capacitor and resitor in a circuit effect the phase of input voltage?
A capacitor and a resistor has no effect on the supply voltage; however, this particular load combination will cause the load current to lead the supply voltage by some angle termed the 'phase angle'.
The answer is: They are not. Whosoever told you that is off his meds. Alternatively, in some special applications there may be a reason for it. Many DC systems use a common ground where the loads are encased in the ground (like starter motors). Thus all breakers are positive, but some don't. If the loads don't care about polarity and the positive and ground are not common (like with a metal chassis), positive and negative is irrelevant.
How do you calculate the cost of running a 7.5 HP 230V ac Motor which runs 24 x 7?
total hour = 24*7 = 168 hrs
now 1 h.p. =0.750 kw
7.5h.p. =(?)
Hence = 5.625 kw
hence total unit = kw*hrs =5.625*168 =945kwh
NOw cost = unit/hrs *motor running hrs
=6 Rs for indust * 945
=5670 Rs
6013 can be used on AC or DC plus?
The 6013 Rod can be used on either ac or dc arc welders, at around 90-120 amps depending on your settings

Can loose neutral wire effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker?
Yes, a loose neutral wire can effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker.
What formula would be used to convert at current transformer rating at 60Hz to 25Hz?
I don't understand your question. Are you asking how to convert from 60hz to 25hz using a transformer? That cannot be done. Frequency in = frequency out.
You have to convert the peak voltage to an r.m.s. value, before inserting that value into the power equation.
How do you calculate the current in 40W tube light in 230V?
Voltage x Current = Power
So Power / voltage = current
Now you do the math
What is creeping in transformer?
In energy meters , slow but continuous , rotation is obtained even when there is no current flowing through the current coil and only pressure coil is energized which leads to over compensation of friction and it causes creeping in energy meters
Which metals are magnitized easiest?
ANY METAL (COMPOUND ELEMENT) WITH HIGH FERROUS CONTENT. THIS IS COMMONLY KNOWN AS IRON.
How does electricity react to resistances in parallel and in series?
Resistances in series act just as if they were one single resistor. The value of the single resistor is the sum of the individual resistors connected in series ... Ra + Rb + Rc etc. When several resistors are in series, the effective total is greater than the biggest one. Resistance in parallel act just as if they were one single resistor. The reciprocal of the value of the single resistor is the sum of the reciprocals of the individual resistors connected in parallel ... Total effective resistance = 1 divided by (1/Ra + 1/Rb + 1/Rc + etc.) When several resistors are in parallel, the effective total is less than the smallest one. Once you figure out the effective value of the series- or parallel-combination of many resistors, you handle them as if they were one single resistor, and you can work with the voltage and current: Current through any resistance = (Voltage across it) divided by (its resistance).
