Impact Of Harmonics On Power Quality
In the earlier years, harmonics were not prevalent in most industries as most of the loads were linear loads, such as three-phase induction motors, incandescent
Starting Torque Of DC Motor
The Starting torque is the maximum torque that a motor can deliver to the mechanical load for its rotation. DC motor is capable of delivering
What is True RMS Measurement? RMS Vs True RMS
What is True RMS? True RMS measurement is more reliable and accurate than RMS measurement. We express the AC voltage and current in its effective
Breaking Capacity of Circuit Breaker
Definition: Breaking capacity or interrupting capacity of the circuit breaker is a crucial parameter for selecting the breaker for the electrical network. The short circuit
Accuracy Class Of Current Transformer
The accuracy class of a CT refers to the permissible error limits of the CT over a specified range of conditions. It ensures that the
Magnetization Curve of CT
The magnetization curve of the current transformer shows the relationship between the secondary excitation current and secondary excitation voltage. The equivalent circuit diagram of the
How to Calculate Knee Point Voltage of Current Transformer?
What is the knee point voltage of CT? The knee point is defined as the voltage at which a 10% increase in applied voltage increases the magnetizing current by 50%.
What is the Use Of Knee Point Voltage?
In this article we will discuss the use of knee point voltage of current transformer in the protection circuit. The knee point voltage of CT
Why CT Secondary Shall Never Be Kept Open?
Open-circuited CT can cause serious safety concerns like fire, electrocution, and protection failure. Therefore, you must ensure that CT secondary should always be close-circuited. Let
VVVF Drive- Why V/f Ratio is Kept Constant in VFD?
VVVF( Variable voltage variable frequency) control is used to control the speed of the induction motor. The VVVF drive controls the voltage and frequency simultaneously
