Answer / amit rajak

contactor- it is simply a switch or combination of switch
which is used to open or closed the circuit having
different phase wire in single phase circuit or three phase
circuit by automatic that is by pneumatic ( by air ) or
also manually.


relay -it is a protecting device that is used to protect
the circuit from faults.
it is basically a sensor which senses the fault in
electrical circuit having different parameters .it ihas a
predetermined set parameter which makes comparision under
fault condition and provides the initial signal to the
circuit breaker which fif finds the parameter more than
the predetermined magnitude or value it trips the circuit
examples of relays are:
1).electromagnetic relays
2).thermal relays
3).induction relays
4).differential relays
5).distace relays

few modification are used in these relays to suite certain
operation.

we have one pumping station and 4.6 MW 7 no.s synchronous motors.so there is no required HT capacitor to improve power factor.But we have two no.s of 25 Mva power transformer connect to distribute the power for motors connect with 220 kv line.So i have required the HT capacitor to improve power factor at HT side i mean power transformer bus side.So please suggest how much HT capacitor banks required for same.
