What is the breakdown voltage?

Answer Posted / praveen

for example take a transistor it needs more 0.7v(for
germanium) to switch ON so this voltage is called break down
voltage.

how does the terminal voltage of transmission lines increase when a capacitor is connected???? This happens not only in transmission lines but also in all circuits. How??? When a capacitor is connected in a transmission line, capacitor also takes energy from the same supply. But how is it able to increase the terminal voltage??? Practically What sequence of events happen during increase in voltage???

I am designing new project sub station with 220 kV / 11 kV, 40 MVA capacity. This project have many recifier sets, which can generate 3rd harmonics. Now I have to select vector group of This transformer. To minimise 3rd harmonics, what care should I take in selection of Transformer Vecrtor group? If it is Y-Y with open Delta tertiary then what should be the rating & voltage of Tertiary Winding?

hello friends.. I have a doubt regarding the operation of dc machines.. I studied in a text book that a dc machine can be used as a generator and as a motor.. is this possible? If so,please send me the info about this topic.. you can also send your info to my mail.
