Why electricity in India is in the multiples of 11 like
11kv, 22kv, 33kv

Answer Posted / shashidhar

Transformer Induced voltage equation contains 4.44 factor.

E=4.44*f*T*phi
E -Induced emf per phase
T -number of turns
f -frequency
phi -maximum flux per pole

From the equation we see that E is proportional to 4.4 and
it is in turn multiple of 11.
So always transmission voltage is multiple of 11

A 400 V, 50 Hz, Δ connected synchronous generator has a field reactance of 0.1 Ω and armature resistance of 0.015 Ω. At full load, the machine supplies 1200 A at 0.8 pf lagging. Under full-load conditions, the friction and windage losses are 40 KW and the core losses are 30 KW. What is the machine’s overall efficiency? Ignore any field circuit losses.
