Answer / mugunthan
Firstly, the output of power stations comes from a rotary
turbine, which by it's nature is AC and therefore requires
no power electronics to convert to DC.
Secondly it is much easier to change the voltage of AC
electricity for transmission and distribution.
thirdly the cost of plant associated with AC transmission
(circuit breakers, transformers etc) is much lower than the
equivilant of DC transmission
AC transmission provides a number of technical advantages.
When a fault on the network occurs, a large fault current
occurs. In an AC system this becomes much easier to
interupt, as the sine wave current will naturally tend to
zero at some point making the current easier to interrupt

Answer / bhasker reddy
Generation in AC 11kv is only more efficient, more than 11kv generation we are getting commutation problems in alternator,same problem in dc generator also. so generation ac. cumming to transmission for higher KV DC Transmission is efficient, cumming to distribution ac efficient and reliable.
and india equipment designed fo 230v, 50Hz. if go with DC we get low efficiency and need to change equipment design.

Answer / anil
because the electronic component is not stable & irregular for convert the ac into dc so when the fault occur there is the large time is consuming

Why reverse relay used
Whether 3 phase induction motorwith 100 hp capacity , Amp 160 for which sensitive earth fault relay , type CTUM 15 can be used?
When one of three series resistors is removed from a circuit and the circuit is reconnected, the current
explain why the secondary terminal of current transformer should not be lift open circuited.
how to find ratio of CT & PT in 66/11kv 12 mva supply system ? explain with calculation.
why all selected supply voltages are multiple of 11.i.e440,11 kv,33 kv,66 kv,110 kv etc
my 10 hp submersible pump is tripping when connected through ELCB.I have checked the megger value of the coil's with body.It was found to be 0.2mega ohm.that is leakage is there.But when connected to mccb it is not tripping.no leakage current in the motor.Is it safe to connect to mccb? what are the problem's will arise if future?also tell me in ELCB no neutral is connected to motor.than how ELCB was working?
which one is dangerous AC Power r DC Power for Electrical Shock ?
