what is surge voltage and surge current?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / viraj
normally above voltage 10kv called voltage source
their are of two types
1.system generated
when ckt connected or disconnected
2.lightning
lightning stroke over the current caring conductor.
surge current means inrush current
it takes 5 to 10 times current when instrument starts for first time

Answer / sarmadahmed
Surge current is the faulty current produced due to some short circuit and is capable of burning the equipment so earthing is used to provide it a low resistant path for grounding.
Surge current means an instantaneous current of very high amplitude.
Surge voltage would be in case of open circuit condition.

Why HT voltages are expressed in 11KV,22KV,33KV and so on? (ie in times of 11)
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...
