Distribution System Connection: All Distribution System Connection of electrical energy is done by constant voltage system. In practice, the following distribution circuits are generally used 1.Radial System: In this system,…
DC Distribution System: It is a common knowledge that electric power is almost exclusively generated, transmitted and distributed as a.c. However, for certain applications, d.c. supply is absolutely necessary. For…
AC Distribution System: Now-a-days electrical energy is generated, transmitted and distributed in the form of alternating current. One important reason for the widespread use of alternating current in preference to…
Underground Cables: Electric power can be transmitted or distributed either by overhead system or by underground cables. The underground cables have several advantages such as less liable to damage through storms…
Corona: When an alternating potential difference is applied across two conductors whose spacing is large as compared to their diameters, there is no apparent change in the condition of atmospheric…
Introduction to Overhead Line: Electric power can be transmitted or distributed either by means of underground cables or by overhead line. The underground cables are rarely used for power transmission…
Economic Choice of Transmission Voltages: It has been shown earlier here that if transmission voltage is increased, the volume of conductor material required is reduced. This decreases the expenditure on…
Comparison of AC Transmission and DC Transmission: The electric power can be transmitted either by means of d.c. or a.c. Each system has its own merits and demerits. It is,…
