Answer / jithendra

NGR or Neutral Grounding Resistors are used to limit the ground fault current to a safe value in the event of earth fault. A NGR limits the earth fault current to a value which will be sufficient to operate protective relays and prevent unwanted fault damage.

Answer / patni

Generator /Transformer neutral is grounded through resistor, called NGR (Neutral Grounding Resistor)which is used to limit the ground fault current to a safe value in the event of the earth fault. A NGR limits the earth fault current to a value which will be sufficient to operate protective relays and prevent equipment damage by excessive flow of fault current.

what is mean by harmonics 1
how can we minimize the off load losses of a distribution transformer which is required to be energized 24x7 ?? capacity of the T/F is 1250 KVA and off load losses are around 2.0 KW.. can we use capacitor bank at the secondary of such a T/F to overcome off load losses? please elaborate briefly...thanks 2
In alternator generally we give DC voltage to field of alternator but field (excitor)produce Ac & converts into DC by rotating rectifier(RR ) then fed to rotor .my question is why we cannot give dc voltage directly to rotor instead of Excitor & RR ? 1

If a 1.5V,3W torch light bulb is connected in series with a 15HP/11.19KW,230V single phase motor and the combination is connected against a 230V supply and switched on than what will happen keeping all other parameters as it should be A)the bulb will glow normally B)the bulb will not glow C)the bulb will glow with extra brightness D)the bulb will burn out and if a fuse is connected to the above circuit will something happen to the fuse and what about the single phase motor will it be affected? Please explain with derivation 4

Sir we have 12.5 MVA(110/11KV) transformer (Y-Y) connected,which tripped showing earth fault,when we charged transformer it stood OK ,but on connecting 11 KV feeders it tripped showing earth fault.our service engineers found that the B phase and R phase phase connecting to neutral broken from HV OLTC(on load tap changer),and R phase and Neutral is ok.Dissolved gas analysis shows that accetline content is high,tan delta value is 12.My dout is it is an internal fault of transformer,why REF or diffrential relay is not acted?
