Why ACB is used in LT why not in HT and why VCB is used in
HT why not in LT

Answer Posted / iamdon

In ACB(Air Circuit Breaker) arc extinguishing and
insulating is carried out in air medium where as in VCB
(Vaccum Circuit Breaker)it is carried out in low vaccum.
At high voltages, air inonises and losses its dieectric
properties which makes the ACB unsuitable at HT.Thats why
ACB is used at LT not at HT.

Vaccum can suastain high voltage(not ionises) and does not
losses its dielectric properties which makes the VCB
suitable for HT.

Since VCB is costlier and require more maintenance as
compared to ACB.So VCB is not employed for LT where cheaper
option as ACB is available.

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
