What is transformer break down voltage.And what is flash oil flash point...

Answer / pillay

It is transformer oil dielectric breakdown voltage.
A sample of the tx oil is collected and tested with a
special tester. In the tester is a pair of electrode spaced
as per BS
spec. A TEST VOLTAGE IS APPLIED ACROSS THE ELECTRODES , and
this voltage is gradually increased until a breakdown
happens resulting in sparks across the electrode, immeadetly
the test voltage is stoped and the RMS voltage is
calculated.A few test is carried over and the mean voltage
is taken as the breakdown voltage of the sample oil under
test.

It is flash point of oil.The flash point is at what temp the
oil would self ignite. This depends on the quality and type
of oil.

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
