Answer / arb555
The reason is some thing historical.
In olden days when the electricity becomes popular, the
people had a misconception that in the transmission line
there would be a voltage loss of around 10%. So in order to
get 100 at the load point they started sending 110 from
supply side. This is the reason. It has nothing to do with
form factor (1.11). Nowadays that thought has changed and we
are using 400 V instead of 440 V, or 230 V instead of 220 V.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FORM FACTOR 1.11
OR
TRANSFORMER EQUATION 4.44*f*fi * smting

Answer / priya
The power factor is of Multiples of 11 and also the form
factor is of 1.1

Answer / psychoelectric
It's just a myth. . . have you ever seen 220v line,it doesn't even exist. The transmission line are usually of 230v and for high voltages we use 400kv power system.

Answer / raja
it is in no way related to the form factor. this is a misconception.
the way the parameters today seem to be multiples of 11 dates back to 1900...1910... dc vs ac....edison vs tesla(not the car)
NOTHING TO DO WITH FORM FACTOR
pls google war of currents ....there is a good wiki page and there are multiple video documentaries on youtube related to this......

Answer / gurpreet singh
because of the rating of the insulators used for overhead
transmission i.e,11kv

What do you mean by per capita requirement of electrical energy in india
is synchrnous pannel is need for two eqal rating transformers to run in parallel
How many points does a Circuit can have?
1. If we apply dc supply to the primary winding of transformer it will be burnt out. similarly dc supply is given to field winding of syn. motor and armature winding of dc motor, they are safe. (Remember both windings inductive nature) what is the reason behind that?
what type of earthing is done on hilly rocks.
How does "OUT OF STEP" relay ,for Synchronous motor protection, work?
We are having Chemical earthing pit the voltage between neutral to earth showing 22V how to solve that
we need a ntpc previous papers
Why primary batteries not rechargeable and secondary batteries are rechargeble??? If any one know please send me.
How to Decide the Location of Earth pit for Compressor in Oil Depo? and How to measure the resistance of earth pit Pls explain me with the help of Circuit Diagram?
in fuel level controller what is MOV please define.
If in a 3 phase supply if the load current is 200A what value of current the each phase R,Y & B will carry?
