Why electricity is generated and transmitted at the values of multiples of 11?..

Answer / ishaan

The electricity is generated and transmitted at the values
of multiples of 11 because the value of form factor is 1.1
for sinusoidal waves, we generally incoorporate sine wave,
cose wave for electrical signals and at this value of form
factor, the efficiency of any electrical equipment is
maximum. More precisely we would say these are the
multiples of 1.1 like 6.6 etc.

Why electricity is generated and transmitted at the values of multiples of 11?..

Answer / gunnam santosh

we get avg values by multipling formfactor 1.11 for ac
sinusoidal wave form, so that efficiency will be maximum
