how we can select MCB ratings according to Voltages, Curves...

Answer / balakrishnan

1.We can select the MCB's acoording to Voltage is simple,if
we want 230V,select single pole MCb's else want 415V select
3 pole MCB's.

2.We can select the MCB's according to to Curves is also
simple,there are several types of curvature available..
there are,
B type: react quickly overload i.e 3-4.5 times of full load
current
Type C: react more slowly,these are recommended for
inductive with high inrush currents like fluorescent lamp.5-
10 times of Ifl
Type D: 10-20times of Ifl,recommended for very high inrush
current.
Type K: 8-12 times of full load I,recommended for cable
protection to be provided which include
motors,capacitors,and transformers
Type S: 13-17 times of Ifl,recommended for protection of
control Transformer,

Type Z:

We all have seen transmission and Distribution lines In transmission lines the voltage is high and current is low(to reduce I^2r loss) and in distribution lines voltage is low but current is high however the size of transmission wires is bigger than that of distribution wires even though the amount of current carried by the distribution lines is more than that of transmission lines why?
