What is formula for connecting 2 capacitors in parallel?

The result of connecting two capacitors in parallel is a new capacitor whose capacitance is the sum of the values of the two you connected up. Note. the safe working voltage is equal to the lower of the two working voltages on the two capacitors.

What is pipe earthing?

in this method a galvonise iron pipe of 38mm internal dia 2.5 mt lenght having 12mm dia holes on its surface

How do you make a push button maintained on a starter?

You add an auxilliary normally open contact to the contactor. This contact will be closed any time the contactor is energized. Wire the contact in parallel with your start button. It works like this: When you push the start button, the contactor energizes, starting the motor (or whatever you are controlling). At the same time, it closes the aux. contact. You can now let go of the button, because the aux contact is holding the circuit energized for you. Of course, now the load will run forever, so you have to add another button to break the circuit, allowing the contactor to de-energize. The start button is normally open, closing when you push it. The stop button is normally closed, opening when you push it. Most starter contactors have auxilliary contact kits that you can buy just for this purpose.

Difference between open and short circuit?

An open circuit has a break in it somewhere, so the circuit is not complete and electricity cannot flow. When you power off a light, for example, with an on/off switch, you open the circuit, turning off the light as desired. When there is an unwanted open circuit, for example from a damaged wire, the device or system is unpowered and cannot operate. A short circuit has some unwanted contact between points at different voltage levels, such as from hot to neutral or ground, or between positive and negative. When a short is in a circuit, electricity will take only that path of little or no resistance. The rest of the system is deprived of power, and the conductors feeding the point of the short will likely overheat or burn unless a fuse or breaker operates, creating now an open circuit.

Bil of power transformer?

B.I.L. stands for Basic Impulse Level for the transformer. It should be on the faceplate of the transformer.

What does transformer coupled mean?

It means a signal has no direct (galvanic) connection to the next circuit, rather, the signal is sent (coupled) only through the magnetic field in the transformer. This is used where unwanted DC current would flow, or where a ground loop would result if a direct connection was used.

What are the differences between conductors semiconductors and insulators?

Materials are classified as being conductors, semiconductors, or insulators according to their resistivity.

Resistivity is defined as being 'the resistance of a unit length of a substance of uniform cross section'. In the SI system this equates to the resistance across opposite faces of a one-metre cube of that substance, and is expressed in ohm metres. Note that a one-'metre cube' is not the same thing as a 'cubic metre'.

So, for

conductors: resistivity range 10-8 - 10-6 ohm metres

semiconductors: resistivity range 10-6 - 107 ohm metres

insulators: resistivity range 107 - 1023 ohm metres

To appreciate the difference between these astronomical figures, consider the following:

A 25-mm length of mica (an insulator) of cross-sectional area 2.5 mm2 cross-sectional area will have a resistance of 100 x 1015 ohms. A copper wire, having the same cross-sectional area and resistance, will have a length of 14.29 x 1018 metres! That works out to: 14 290 000 000 000 000 kilometres long!!!!

Flashover in the DC motor?

That is not a question. I tend to regard myself as a rather intellegient individual, but no matter how I try to wrap my head around this "question" I cannot begin to parse it in any manner that could possible lead to being able to understand what sort of information is being requested, let along being able to provide it.

Please try again, but rephrase it such that it is actually a question.

Let me provide you with some examples:

"What is flashover in a DC motor?"

"Given {fill in this area} Am I likely having troubles with flashover"

"What causes flashover"

You now owe me.

This "question" was not even worth trolling. Enroll in remedial english classes immediately.

The only possible excuse you could offer to stave off wrath is "The contents of this message are the results of a translation program."

What is a TRIODE and what are its uses?

A triode is a vacuum-tube (US) aka valve(UK) with three electrodes : an anode, a cathode and a grid. The cathode is heated electrically which boils off a cloud of electrons. The anode is made positive ( typ. 100-500V) which attracts the electrons towards it. The grid is an open structure, usually of thin wires, placed between the anode and cathode, but nearer the cathode. If a negative voltage is applied to the grid the current flow through the tube is reduced. The more negative, the less current. Prior to the development of transistors, tubes were used for all things in radio,TV and electronics. Different tubes had different numbers of electrodes; the triode was particularly suited to high power amplifiers, especially at radio frequencies. Triodes are still used today by shortwave radio stations, and for RF heating equipment.

How do you become a product tester?

Go to your local Apple store and ask about the topic . I will also tell you that alot of positions are opening up because apple has just come out with a apple think pad when i did i got an application for the job and filled it out and received the think pad in the mail a week later

How can calculate resistance for negative dc voltage?

Resistance calculations are the same no matter what the polarity of applied voltage. R=E/I Resistance (in ohms) = Voltage (in volts) divided by Current (in amperes)

What is the difference between a single and a dual IGBT?

Single means there is just one. Dual means there are two IGBT's (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) inside the one package.

What is the function of an electrical engineer in telecom sector?

Electrical Engineer in telecom sector is as important as other Engineer as Civil, Telecom etc, as all the system runs on Electrical but now a days, as per market requirement, you should keep know how about other fileld also.

But now a days in different fields every one think that he is misfit and the other is best then him.

So we should change over self time to time with respect to the requirement of time.

What does not provide a voltage difference in a circuit?

Wires do not provide a voltage difference

Answer

As 'voltage' is synonymous with 'potential difference', you appear to be asking "What does not provide a potential difference difference in a circuit?", which does not make any sense!

What is a smoke cloak?

Its a security system similar to flash fog, that uses fog to stop a burglar, the intent is that he cannot find what he is looking for (literally). flashfog takes it up one more step, as it also includes a strobe light, that further cuts visibility by a factor of 3.

Why do light industry and heavy industry use different voltage?

Heavy industry and light industry use different voltages because usually the heavy industry has larger and more powerful machines, therefore the voltage needs to be higher. On the other hand, if high voltage is used in Light industry, with smaller less powerful machines, it could be very dangerous with risk of fire and harm or death to workers and staff.

What converts power to a lower voltage?

Instead of using the word converts try transforms.
