Answer / santoshvarma
You can find the faulted location with the help of multimeter.
Measure the capacitance at both the ends,between faulted
phase with respect to earth.
For one end if it is C1 and for other end it is C2. And
total length of cable is L and Capacitance is C.
Then by using the below formula, you can find the faulted
location
LC=L1c1+L2c2

Answer / rax
transverse nature of waves is utilised to find the location of fault.when a high dc voltage is superimposed on a signal it becomes a wave. now this wave is given a velocity of 67.5meters/microseconds for 11kv cable and 80 meters/microseconds for 33 kv cables. at the open end the voltage is doubled and the wave is reflected .the time taken by this wave to reach the source is noted and the distance is calculated.

What is the better way of passing 400 amp from sending end to receiving end ? By overhead line or underground cable and why ? if underground cable then how much depth require ?
1)we have 1000 cfm Blower,Dia-1Mtr,Velocity of air 94 m/s 2)We have Natural Air velocity 94m/s 3If i Put Wind Mill in natural air ,speed is 94m/s Then it will generate Assume 100kw 4)If i put same wind mill across the Blower,air speed is same 94m/s now the Question is Will it generate 100 kw?
