Multistage Impulse Generator Circuit: In the early discussion, the generator capacitance C1 is to be first charged and then discharged into the wave shaping circuits. A single capacitor C1 may…
Resonant Transformers: The equivalent circuit of a high voltage testing Resonant Transformers consists of the leakage reactance of the windings, the winding resistances, the magnetizing reactance, and the shunt capacitance…
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…
Use of Power Capacitor: In most of the industrial applications, the power requirements are reactive in nature and a lagging current is drawn from the power lines. This requires additional…
High Temperature High Performance Polymers: High Performance Polymers films are thermoplastic and are generally transparent. The are needed for use in applications where temperatures vary from very low (- 269°C)…
Solid Dielectrics Used in Practice: The majority of the insulating systems used in practice are solids. They can be broadly classified into three groups: organic materials, inorganic materials and synthetic…
Breakdown in Composite Dielectrics: It is difficult to imagine a complete insulation system in an electrical equipment which does not consist of more than one type of insulation. If an…
Voltage Transformer Earthing: In this method of neutral earthing, the primary of a single-phase Voltage Transformer Earthing is connected between the neutral and the earth as shown in Fig. 26.17.…
