What is transister , thermister , thyrister?
what is its function? where this using?

Answer Posted / ankamsreekar

Transistor is 3 terminal 3 layer semi conductor device used
for amplification and switching applications.

Thermistor is a device in which the resistance is varies
with the temperature variation. they are used to protect the
electrical machines / windings by sensing temperature. these
are made up of metal oxides. they are non linear in nature.

Thyristor is 3 terminal 4 layer semi conductor device used
for switching applications.

we have earthmat at 110KV substation.we would like to take earth resistance.b some says that by connecting earth megger terminals (C1,P1) at middile point of earthmat (at riser) will cause voltage gradient at other earthmat nods and dont get exat earth resistance.when connecting at end nods will get exat value . is it correct .please explain
