Answer / pillay

You need a magnetic field to produce electrical energy.This
can be produced from electro magnetic means . What if during
a power failure when the DG set usage is most wanted and the
electrical source from a battery is also not available say
due to battery failure or discharged battery.To avoid such
situation a permanent magnet is used instead for initial
excitation.

I have connected 04nos. earthings to a transformer through 04nos. earthing pits seperately. 02nos. earthings are connected to T/F body, and 02nos. earthings are connected to T/F neutral.T/F capacity is 2000KVA, 11KV/415V. But after completing of 02 years successful operation ,we are facing following problems- 1. CT/PT occured blast one time 2. HT cable box occured blast two times 3. One body earthing strip and one neutral earthing strip of transformer are overlapping at some places. Whenever these two strips are pressed at overlapped points, they made spark. What is the reason of spark? Please explain the reason & rectification of above problems
