What is the difference between CRNO and CRGO in an
transformer and what is the advantages of these two.

Answer Posted / zahid noor

CRGO & CRNO are both electrical steel grades used for
stampings & cores of electrical Transformers & other
electrical appliances.
CRNO is cold rolled Non Grain Oriented steel laminations ,
thickness available is not less than .50mm as compared
to .27 of CRGO, & Hence the losses in CRNO are more than
four times of CRGO.CRNGO Non oriented fully processed
steels are iron-silicon alloys with varying silicon
contents and have similar magnetic properties in all
directions in the plan of the sheet. They are principally
used for motors, generators, alternators, ballasts, small
transformers and a variety of other electromagnetic
applications.

WHERE AS CRGO is used for Distribution as well as Power
Transformers due to its low loss characteristics.
CRGO or Cold Rolled Grain Oriented Steel is available in
various grades (generally called M3, M4, M5 & M6). Major
international standards such as Japanese (JIS), American
(ASTM), German (DIN) and British Standards are AVAILABLE
which specify grade, thickness, Watt Losses and Magnetic
Flux density.Conventional CRGO materials (M4, M5, M6) are
used regularly for cores in Transformers.

Hello everyone, somebody knows what is a "surplice power" ? The hole phrase is: "This rating is appropriate for a generator set paralleled with an infinite bus e.g. a national electrical supply network or grid where the generator set is run at 100% load, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and any surplice power is exported into the grid" Thanks in advance.

When we use air circuit breaker, it has O/L protection ,time delay SC protection, Instataneous SC protection & ground fault protection. They all have some setting range. But what is the suitable/allowable setting for the above protection which will be safe for the equipment? For example-O/L protection setting have a range of (0.4,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)xIn Time delay SC protection have a range of (1.25,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10,12)xIn Time delay setting is 0.02,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 Instataneous setting is fixed to 20xIn Gound fault setting is given 100A,300A,600A,900A,1200A This setting are for 2500A ACB. So what will be the basic allowable setting for the above protection? is there any formulae to calculate this<
