In generation,transmission and distribution voltage frequency is either 50HZ or 60 HZ;why are only ..

Answer / binay agrawal

if we give approx 1500rpm to stator, only that case good
induction is covered, & the winding is of genetrally 4 pole.
so according to N=120f/P,
Frequency should be around 50-60HZ.

Answer / atul

it is the just standard which is adopted globally (60hz china, 50hz rest of the world). Design of equipment adopting common standard is easy. the design of equipments based on different freqencies would have been different which is quit difficult.

I find that underground strip-armoiured,4core,LT PVC cables in an earthed power distribution sytem are occasionly found in charred condition-with no trace of it except ash. Is this because of no proper earth connection/continuity (giving rising to high armour resistance)in the joint enroute or because of insufficient capability (again due to high armour resistance)of cable-armour to carry fault current or due to neglected /unprotected overloading of the cable or due to high armour currents caused by power thefts where only phase(s) are unauthorisely tapped & at the point of poer consumption earth terminal is established by burring underground a not so good earthing rod (or using an underground water pipe for the purpose)
