Answer / kunal
It is a large encased group of metal plates about the size
of a small house with 2 sets of insulated copper wires
wrapped around the plates -an input and output - to convert
a very high supply line voltage - maybe 44 thousand volts
to a lower voltage of 2200 volts that runs down the power
line poles in your neighborhood. Look at your street's
power poles and you will see a mini substation that
converts he 2200 volt to 220 volts and may supply several
homes.
Actually a substation transformer for a distribution
substation will reduce the incoming voltage from 115,000
volts or 69,000 volts to a lower voltage closer to 7200
volts that runs down the power poles in your neighborhood.
At your house there will be a small transformer that
reduces the voltage from 7200 volts to 240 volts to meet
the needs in your home.

what is pressure relief valve?where it is used????
Why computer humming sound occurred in ht transmission line?
how will be the capacitance generated in a earthed wire???
if there is nutral in phase why we use earthing wire and grounding? even at fault condition the fault current flows to neutral (it is a lower path)
When calculation of fault current and fault Kva is to be done,why always we use per unit value and why we consider the base kva?
Can anybody suggest me about what are all the TECHNICAL CERTIFICATIONS avilable for Electrical Engineers for working people with clear details??
i need the curve duty cycle and amper for (150 kva @50% dyty cycle) transformer turn ratio :19 and vin 400
Please give me the formula stating relation between AC & Dc.
what is the chiller and working principal
Wat wil happen if Transformer is operated at 100 HZ Frequency?
why in three phase 440 circuit in all phase current is almost equal L1-35 A,L2-34 A ,L3-31 A but in nutral when i check with clamp meter it shows 25 A?
