how is working d.c amps meter?how to connect the dc ammeter inthe circuite?..

Answer / vasuessar

woking: basically ammeter is a current measuring electrical
device. In D.C ammeter is also used for measuring d.c
current only.

connection: to connect the d.c ammeter "series" to the
ciruit by the way it measures the current.

Answer / ashwin

A DC ammeter is also known as moving coil or mc ammeter. For it to work connect it in series as current remains unchanged in series. So when the ammeter is connected in series the current flows through the coil in the presence of a magnetic field which causes a deflection.

A 400 V, 50 Hz, Δ connected synchronous generator has a field reactance of 0.1 Ω and armature resistance of 0.015 Ω. At full load, the machine supplies 1200 A at 0.8 pf lagging. Under full-load conditions, the friction and windage losses are 40 KW and the core losses are 30 KW. What is the machine’s overall efficiency? Ignore any field circuit losses.

We have a 33/11kv switchyard having 12.5 MVA power transformer. We export & import power through this transformer. When we export power, the PF will be depend on GRID PF & when we import power the PF will be depend on our load PF. but the problem is that,when neither we export nor import but our 33KV vCB is in close position,our meter read the power factor 0.14 to 0.25 at that moment. So how can be we improve the power factor at that moment.
