whycircuit breaker is not connected at the generator end
where the capacity of the generator is more say 60MW, 100MW
etc.

Answer / k.prakashchandra
Gen side means usually 11 KV.The generator current at full
load will be very high for 60 MW( 52.5 x MVA A)for an
indoor breaker .Therefore , synchronization and tripping on
fault are done at EHT breaker which is of above 110 KV.For
any fault between the breaker and gen ,the master trip is
employed ,which trips the field breaker ,CB and the governor.

Due to following points
1)Transient Recovery Voltage (TRV)
2)Higher X/R value
3) Delayed current Zero
circuit breakers was not used after above 60 MW generators.
However please note that now full line of IEEE C37.013
qualified medium-voltage vacuum generator circuit breakers
for voltages up to 24 kV and generators up to 200 MW for
both indoor and outdoor applications are available in
market.
Please note that Circuit breakers applied to generator
switching applications are subject to conditions quite
different than those of a normal distribution circuit
breaker used in industrial, commerical and utility systems.
Distribution circuit breakers, whether of the outdoor
substation type or of the drawout type for use in metal-
clad switchgear, conform to IEEE C37.04 (basis of ratings),
IEEE C37.06 (preferred ratings), IEEE C37.09 (testing) and
IEEE C37.10 (application.)

can we charge 3 ph power transformer delta-star wound with neutral grounded 6.6kV/415V from secondary side(415V) but with primary(6.6kV) open by dg,what are the disadvantages or losses.
what is transistors comprised of?
What is maximum demand?How can we caluclate it?
10rm cable can got load ---- amp? Or Which Size Cable can take the load 100amp capacity SCR; breaker.
1 Answers B-Con Trade Associates,
my UPS is 600VA with 0.6 p.f and i use it for my computer which has 450W power supply unit, a monitor of 633nW and speakers. Can any one explain this.. because the output of UPS should be 360W (<450W)
what is differant beetween overload current and phase current?
there is a power transformer 66/11kV in delta-delta connection has 5 feeder coming out from the secondary side. One of the feeder in it normally loaded (loaded than other feeder)and this feeder usually trips with double OCR causing the bank transformer to trip. Now if the load of this feeder is put on other transformer then that no problems occurs on that transformer or the load. However normally all the test(IR, PI, short ckt, open ckt,grounding test and other ) has been conducted for this but evertything transformer..... I am not geting what is the actual problem...
why should we have to maintain pf in our site 0.9????????
what will happen, if both relay contact has live supply, and coil of relay activated
ac and dc motor advandtage,disadvantage,aplication
why we change the direction of winding in rotor ?how we make the north and south pole?
transformer is connected with 50hz and 60hz at same rating which will give more output on same rating
