Simpson Theory of Lightning
Simpson Theory of Lightning: The factors that contribute to the formation or accumulation of charge in the clouds are too many and uncertain. But during thunderstorms, positive and negative charges…

Cascade Transformer Connection: Figure 6.10 shows the Cascade Transformer Connection units in which the first transformer is at the ground potential along with its tank. The second transformer is kept…
Potential Dividers for Impulse Voltage Measurements: Potential or voltage dividers for high voltage Impulse Voltage Measurements, high frequency a.c. measurements, or for fast rising transient voltage measurements are usually either…
Electrostatic Voltmeters: In Electrostatic Voltmeters fields, the attractive force between the electrodes of a parallel plate capacitor is given by where, V = applied voltage between plates, C = capacitance…
Series Resistance Microammeter: High d.c. voltages are usually measured by connecting a very high resistance (few hundreds of megaohms) in Series Resistance Microammeter as shown in Fig. 7.1. Only the…
Voltage Doubler Circuits: Both full wave and half wave rectifier circuits produce a d.c. voltage less than the a.c. maximum voltage. When higher d.c voltages are needed, a Voltage Doubler…
Half and Full Wave Rectifier Circuits: Half and Full Wave Rectifier Circuits for producing high d.c. voltages from a.c. sources may be (a) Half wave, (b) Full wave, or (c) Voltage…
Applications in High Voltage Bushings: At rated voltages higher than 52 kV, the condenser or capacitance graded bushing principle is generally used. The insulating material for such a Applications in…
