What is Skin effect? When direct current flows in the conductor, the current is uniformly distributed across the section of
Cable fault locate technique Without cable fault indicators the utility must rely on more manual techniques for finding the location
Auto-reclosing on EHV Transmission Networks The most important consideration in the application of auto-reclose to EHV transmission lines is the
What is Power Swing? Power Swing which is basically caused by the large disturbances in the power system which if
Zone protection Generally zones Z1, Z2, Z3 are taken as forward direction and Z4 is taken as reverse direction with
What is Distance Protection? A distance protection element measures the quotient impedance (V/I), considering the phase angle between the voltage
Introduction Cross linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulated single core and multicore cables are manufactured with colours of cores red, yellow, blue
Introduction Since the loads having the trends towards growing density. This requires the better appearance, rugged construction, greater service reliability
Method of Underground Cable laying Laying Underground Cables can be done by the 3 methods namely: Direct Laying Draw in
Fault in Power system A fault in a power system or circuit is a failure which interferes with the normal
Introduction Electric power transmission was originally developed with direct current. The availability of transformers and the development and improvement of
Types of Protection on Transmission line Line protection is achieved by following protection system: Distance Protection Over current and Earth
Definition of Earth fault relay Earth fault relay is used to sense ground or earth-faults i.e. L-G faults and L-L-G
Overcurrent relay operates when load current exceeds pre-set value i.e. pick up value. Transmission lines, distribution lines, large power equipment
A radial feeder fed from one end protected by overcurrent relay, fails to maintain uninterrupted supply when circuit breaker near
Definition Directional feature is realized by comparing the direction of flow of line current with reference to the bus voltage
Introduction Power Transmission/Distribution system i.e. radial feeders uses overcurrent protection scheme. Feeder is divided in two or more section and
What is corona ? At higher voltages, the localized high electric fields ionize the air surrounding the surface of the
Definition of Electrical Power transmission Electric power transmission is one process in the transmitting of electricity to consumers. The term
