Loop Tests in Underground Cables: There are several methods for locating the faults in underground cables. However, two popular methods known as Loop Tests in Underground Cables are : Murray…
Grading of Cables: The process of achieving uniform electrostatic stress in the dielectric of cables is known as grading of cables. It has already been shown that electrostatic stress in…
Capacitance of Single Core Cable: A Capacitance of Single Core Cable can be considered to be equivalent to two long co-axial cylinders. The conductor (or core) of the cable is…
Laying of Underground Cables: The reliability of Laying of Underground Cables network depends to a considerable extent upon the proper laying and attachment of fittings i.e., cable end boxes, joints,…
Self GMD and Mutual GMD: Self GMD and Mutual GMD - The use of self geometrical mean distance (abbreviated as Self GMD) and mutual geometrical mean distance (Mutual GMD) simplifies…
Skin Effect in Transmission Lines: Skin Effect in Transmission Lines - When a conductor is carrying steady direct current (d.c.), this current is uniformly distributed over the whole X-section of…
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…
Conductor Material Used for Transmission and Distribution: The conductor is one of the important items as most of the capital outlay is invested for it. Therefore, proper choice of material…
