Why DC electricity does not have poly phase?
There is no such thing as phase in DC as phase requires AC.
To have two or more things out of phase requires them to be changing. Only AC does that. DC is steady state.
Why do ripples reduce in full wave rectifier as compared to half wave rectifier?
Ripple factor (γ) may be defined as the ratio of the root mean square (rms) value of the ripple voltage to the absolute value of the dc component of the output voltage, usually expressed as a percentage. However, ripple voltage is also commonly expressed as the peak-to-peak value. This is largely because peak-to-peak is both easier to measure on an oscilloscope and is simpler to calculate theoretically. Filter circuits intended for the reduction of ripple are usually called smoothing circuits.
The simplest scenario in ac to dc conversion is a rectifier without any smoothing circuitry at all. The ripple voltage is very large in this situation; the peak-to-peak ripple voltage is equal to the peak ac voltage. A more common arrangement is to allow the rectifier to work into a large smoothing capacitor which acts as a reservoir. After a peak in output voltage the capacitor (C) supplies the current to the load (R) and continues to do so until the capacitor voltage has fallen to the value of the now rising next half-cycle of rectified voltage. At that point the rectifiers turn on again and deliver current to the reservoir until peak voltage is again reached. If the time constant, CR, is large in comparison to the period of the ac waveform, then a reasonably accurate approximation can be made by assuming that the capacitor voltage falls linearly. A further useful assumption can be made if the ripple is small compared to the dc voltage. In this case the phase angle through which the rectifiers conduct will be small and it can be assumed that the capacitor is discharging all the way from one peak to the next with little loss of accuracy.[1]
What is the impact of reversing the polarity of a CT in a 3phase and 4wire metering arrengement?
The net measured power would appear to be negative, or reversed.
Why lpf wattmeter used in no load?
Basically at noloads the current value is less so we use lpf at no loads
What is difference between ICT and Transformers in power system?
A CT is a measuring device but does not step up or step down voltage like a transformer will.
What is operating coil of differential relay?
My understanding is that on most (if not all) differential relays, there are currents coming in from both sides of the operating coil. These currents should cancel out, or in reality, nearly cancel out. Therefore, the effective current in the operating coil is zero. When the net current in the operating coil is not zero, the relay trips.
There are instances when you don't want the relay to trip though. Therefore, the operating coil works together with a restraint coil. (Well probably 2 restraint coils.) The relay will trip if the operating coil's current must exceed the restraint coil's current by a certain amount.
How do you tappet adjustment of cat generator?
i adjusted tappet on cat engines by turning the engine first
piston no.1 in TDC and check all (intake/exhaust) valves in close position,or follow maintenance guide book ,then check again when piston no.1 on exhaust stroke the same procedure be taken. or do it by turning the engine till the individual piston on TDC as perengine firing order and adjust both valves
Why dual combustion cycle is called as limited pressure cycle?
In dual combustion cycle heat is added at constant volume which increases the efficiency of cycle, whereas heat addition at constant pressure limits the maximum pressure of the cycle.
What is the meaning of magnetic balance test?
Magnetic balance test is performed on transformer to check, whether the core and windings of the transformer is balance position or not.
Magnetic Balance is a test of Critical use as it helps us to enhance the efficiency and life of transformers.
No. A CVT (capacitor voltage transformer), like an voltage transformer, has a high primary impedance. the connections of a CT require the high voltage current to pass through the primary winding. This would result in significant loading of the circuit in question, at least until the CVT cooked.
Why you switch off circuit breakers before operate disconnecting switch at substation?
It probably doesn't matter. But a "disconnecting means", as the NEC calls it, is not intended to be operated while under load, which is when the equipment is running. It is intended to isolate the equipment so it can be serviced safely. A breaker by its very nature is intended to be operated under load.
The larger the equipment, the more this matters.
Why we need to do star connection?
Usually star connections are needed in places where lots of peripheral connectors have to be made. these types of circuits are most common in domestic power connections in highly crowded and power demanding sectors.
Thanks.
Why conductance is ignored in transmission lines?
Conductance is ignored in short circuit studies because the inductance of the line is the dominant value. Conductance may not be ignored in stability studies.
Ohm's Law: Current is voltage divided by resistance.
12 volts divided by 470 ohms is 25.5 milliamperes.
Power is voltage times current, so power in this case would be 12 volts times 25.5 milliamperes, or 0.306 watts. As a result, you need at least a one half watt resistor, and I would prefer a one watt resistor, because it is going to get a bit warm, and a margin of safety is always a good thing. This is particularly true when you consider tolerances, such as the battery actually putting out 13 or 14 volts and the resistor being on the low side, at 470 - 10%, or 423 ohms. (0.463 watts - too close to one half watt for comfort)
What happens with voltage and current by damaged diode...the diode is IN5408?
It depends on how the diode is damaged. There are generally two cases. One, the diode is shorted, and conducts with a low impedance in both directions. The other, the diode is open, and does not conduct, having a high impedance, in both directions. The effect depends on the particular circuit. In a power supply, a shorted diode will often blow the fuse, while an open diode will result in no output, or in high ripple voltage output.
Is it possible that diode has normal voltage output but wrong current,meaning low mA?
This is too complicated to describe on this forum, but there are lots of web pages that describe the 'three-ammeter' method of measuring power, so your best plan is to visit one of those sites.
What happen if 4 resistor is connected in parallel and resistor 1 is connected as short circuit?
I'd have to see a diagram, as your description in words is unclear.
Will low refrigerant cause excess electric bill?
If the refrigerant is not at an optimal level (either too low or too high), the system will have to work harder to produce the same amount of cooling. This results in more electricity being used to get the same amount of cooling.
Why use surge protecting resistor to generator rotor winding?
To limit the fault current used surge protective resistance in generator rotor winding to protect the rotor winding heavy damage.
What is the residual voltage of a 380Vac 264KW generator?
Residual voltage is the vector sum of all three phase voltages. Ideally this will be zero.
What physical characteristics distinguishes between a main contractor and a relay?
contactor are usually bulkier than relays .they are usually used for supplying power to heavy current using equipment eg industrial motors etc.relays are generally used in control panels supplying power to less current using control equipment
Can you use a 480VAC step down transformer and apply 120VAC to the primary?
In theory, you can. If you have a power transformer rated at 480 primary side and the secondary at say 120VAC, then the ratio is 4:1. Meaning that there are four times the number of turns on the primary side as to the secondary. So, if you were to power the primary side with 120VAC as opposed to 480VAC you would expect to see a 1/4 reduction in voltage output on the secondary, or 30VAC. The current would be dependant on the cross section of the secondary conductor and core construction. As current is increased thru the load (as in resistance welding) for example, you would expect voltage to decrease or lag, a larger Industrial sized transformer is able to compensate for this lag in voltage better than a compact household power transformer.
How much power of capacitor bank have to install for 100KVA?
If you want 100kVAR from a capacitor bank, you must install a 100kVAR capacitor bank. If what you're asking is related to how much capacitance it will take to offset a poor power factor, it is directly related to your load, and cannot be answered without more details - for power factor correction, you don't want to over correct (you would be buying too much equipment, and it could actually make your power factor look worse), so load profiles must be taken into account. Can the capacitors be switched on automatically, or must they be manually switched? What voltage level? The best way to determine this is to discuss with your local power company. They usually have people on staff that analyze this sort of thing on a regular basis, and if they don't, they could at least point you in the right direction.
