What is a medium voltage ring main?
how, in simple terms, would you describe a ring main (Specifically medium voltage)
It is 1 million watts. Watts are a measure of the rate of energy transfer. Mega is one of the metric system prefixes meaning million. For more information see the link below. It can be applied to quantities such as watts.
A megawatt is one million watts or one thousand kilowatts.
The watt is the unit that is used for measuring electrical power, 1000 watts = 1 kilowatt and 1000,000 = 1 megawatt.
The pulses differ because the two pulses are in opposite directions.
basically there will not be any difference between them.
the capacity of equipment will be more such as the CB rating will be more

Hi pass says it passes higher frequency signals and blocks lower pass signals. This isn't typically a hard cutoff point but the lower frequency signals get attenuated over a frequency range. The R stands for resistance and C for capacitance such that these components are used to create the pass band for the circuit.
What are some of the applications of shunt motors?
1. D.C Shunt Motors:It is a constant speed motor.Where the speed is required to remain almost constant from noload to full load.Where the load has to be driven at a number of speeds and any one of which is nearly constant.
Industrial use:
Lathes
Drills
Boring mills
Shapers
Spinning and Weaving machines.
2. D.CSeries motor: It is a variable speed motor.The speed is low at high torque.At light or no load ,the motor speed attains dangerously high speed.The motor has a high starting torque.(elevators,electric traction)
Industrial Uses:
Electric traction
Cranes
Elevators
Air compressor
Vacuum cleaner
Hair drier
Sewing machine
3. D.C Compound motor: Differential compound motors are rarely used because of its poor torque characteristics.
Industrial uses:
PressesShears
Reciprocating machine.
A step-up transformer produces a voltage across its secondary winding which is higher than its primary winding. The secondary winding is connected to the load, while the primary winding is connected to the supply.
How does a eddy current type tachometer work?
it consist of a permanent magnet as stator and a low resistance solid metalic cylinder as rotor, which drives the pointer and scale arrangement. the rotor is also connected to shaft which has a provition to get contact with the rotating machines,whose rpm has to be measured. when it get contact to a rotating machine the shaft rotates which eventually rotates the metalic cylinder in strong magnetic field , its known that when a low resistant metal rotated in a strong magnetic field eddy current gets induced in the low resistance metal opposing the cause of action which held the pointer in equilibrium position showing some reading which will be caliberated for the corresponding speeds hence it shows the correct rpm in which the machine rotates
What is a reflector and what is its purpose in in lighting?
A reflector is a, usually large, sheet of reflective material used to reflect light into shadows of a subject. It is usually used where there is strong lighting from one side to even up the light in an image.
What is critical resistance of the field circuit of a DC generator?
The value of resistance of shunt field winding beyond which the shunt generator fails to build up its voltage is known as " critical resistance
at a given speed it is the maximum field resistance with which the shunt generator excite.
What is the difference between Load Break Switch and Circuit Breaker?
There are two important different parameters as far as the disconnection/connection of Electrical utilities is concerned.
- Breaking capacity.
- Making Capacity.
In simple way the Load Break Switch used to cut off healthy circuits or to break / disconnect the load. As a precaution, normally the LBS / Isolator are to be switched on under no load, the connected load to be utilized after switching on the Isolator. This why it has no making capacity. Circuit Breakers are intended to operate under unnormal conditions in order to clear the fault & to isolate the defective circuits protecting its associated electrical equipment, therefore breaking and making capacities are considered as the most important criteria as far Circuit breaker are concerned.
A current greater than which a circuit is designed to carry , may melt wires or damage elements of the circuit.This is known as overloading of current.
What is the circuit for reversing an electric motor?
I HAVE A SMALL ELECTRIC CLOCK MOTOR THAT I NEED TO REVERSE. WHAT IS THE CIRCUIT I NEED TO REVERSE IT?
a pipe fabricator would be a pipefitter that fabricates pipe in a shop or in the field.he/she does this with a welder and a helper.a number of power tools.he takes a set of iso drawings and cuts pipe to length and makes the fittings until he has fabricated what the drawing he has in his hand calls for.they send it to the place it has to be installed at and install it.most times.alterations are made in the field.
Advantages and disadvantages of dc shunt motor load?
·
Installations of DC machines are found more regularly within heavy industrial practises, as torque and speed can be varied over a wide range easily, and with minimal reductions in efficiency.
·
DC motors are often favoured in industry, as post installation, power supply is cheap and simple to maintain, and can also be utilised straight from a battery unlike AC supplies
·
The speed of a DC motor can also be controlled with a simple and inexpensive control unit compared to that of an AC motor, as only the armature voltage control is needed.
Disadvantages·
DC machine installations are expensive. They also require large and potentially damaging currents upon start-up before power efficient speeds can be achieved.
·
Despite the advantages stated above, DC machines are seldom used as a form of power supply within industrial premises; as power is supplied as AC by default, and cost of installation is too high.
·
DC motors are unreliable at low speeds, and are also physically much larger than AC supply motors.
·
DC machines use commutators that reverse current. These are susceptible to wear and tear unlike slip rings that are used in AC machines instead, therefore resulting in higher maintenance expenditure.
To use your left hand to determine the direction of the voltage developed in a moving conductor in a stationary magnetic field, you must point your forefinger in the direction of the lines of force.
which obey ohms law
ANSWER: Not all potentiometers are linear some are made to follow a logarithm function some follows an exponential function. A linear potentiometer will have a linear curve.
Materials that obey Ohm's Law are called 'linear' or 'ohmic'; those that don't are called 'non-ohmic' or 'non-linear'.
What is a reference voltage of an adc?
The voltage at which the adc converts the signal.... it can also be called a limit of an ADC.
An asynchronous alternating-current machine, such as an induction motor or induction generator, in which the windings of two electric circuits rotate with respect to each other and power is transferred from one circuit to the other by electromagnetic induction.

Load cell is an electrical device which converts mechanical force into electrical signal. Load cells are used to measure forces and weight. With load cells one can measure tensile forces and compression forces. The load cell output is fed to a ADC (analog to digital converter) which in turn gives out digital output which can be calibrated to display the force in required unit.
Load cells can be broadly classified-
Based on mechanical construction
Based on electrical properties
What is the voltage of high tension electrical transmissions towers?
Usually HV is 33KV and 66KV, EHV is 132KV, 220KV and 400KV and UHV is 800KV and 1200KV
I think you're talking about a grounding connector that allows multiple connections to be made to it, thus looking like a 'Star' when viewed from above.
This would be opposed to a single-connection 'jack' where only one connection is made to the 'jack', or lug.
Why does voltage increase and not stay the same in mutual induction?
Well the same reason fire doesn't stay at the same temp. is always changing
