what are iron and copper losses

Answer Posted / swati ahuja

Iron losses are the fixed losses in an electric motor.These
are also known as "fixed losses".These are:
1> Eddy current losses
2> Hysteresis loss

To overcome eddy current loss the core is built is in
laminations while to overcome hysteresis loss, the core is
made of stainless steel laminations,i.e.,hysteresis loss is
a property of the material of the core.

Copper losses are the variable losses equal to sq. of
current X R.

How do i perform grounding of star point of Genset (400V) for making connection with step up transformer of DELTA-DELTA (400V to 20KV) ? while Genset itself has its own neutral and grounding bus bar inside genset breaker box whereas we have another neutral and grounding busbar in synchronizing panel next to genset at maximum distance of 6meter, would someone pls advice if we can only perform neutral grounding in synchronizing panel or should we ground neutral on both places inside genset breaker box and synchronizing panel.
