We have a 62.5 KVA DG with Leyland engine and kirloskar
slipring alternator. We have earthed the neutral, and another
earthing for the dg body. is it necessary to isolate the dg
foundation with rubber pads?

Answer Posted / a.p.nanjappa

As your DG is a small capacity,it is okFor large DG ,dg
founations are earthed. rubber pads reduce the vibrations.

ASTM D 3455 - Standard Test Methods for Compatibility of Construction Material with Electrical Insulating Oil of Petroleum Origin has been used for Testing Transformer Oils with a product placed in it. Aged Control Oil has a Power Factor of 0.032% at 100°C. Aged Oil with a Test component has a Power Factor of 0.093% at 100°. Is this increase acceptable? If not why? How much increase is acceptable?

a)In a 3-phase 4-wire circuit, a circuit breaker is selected to protect the circuit whose highest fault level is 6.6 MVA. Determine the required minimum breaking capacity in kA. (Note: Covert 3-phase power in terms of kA to find answer.) b)Using the below, determine the required minimum making capacity in kA as a “peak value”. Rate breaking capacity (Icn) ka: Icn<= 1.5 Factor = 1.41 1.5
