why the generating voltage in India is 11kV or why is it be
transmitted as multiples of 11

Answer Posted / siddhesh mhatre

reason is something historical: in olden days when the electricity became popular, engineers had a misconception that there would be a voltage loss of around 10% in the transmission line. So, in order to get 10 kilovolts at the load point, they started sending 11 kilovolts from supply side. This is the reason. It has nothing to do with form factor (1.11).

Nowadays that thought has changed and we are using 400 V instead of 440 V, or 230 V instead of 220 V.

Please help me regarding my one concern. - During earth pit testing we noticed that the Clean earth pit and dirty earth pit showing continuity (Resistance value - 5ohm) . I want to know that if both earth pit have separate location and there is not internal looping between PIT then why such continuity is showing on it . Because of this issue the field side all earthing point showing short. In PLC panel we are providing two types of earthing cable which is coming from separate earth pit (Clean and Dirty earth pit) because of earth PIT showing short our PLC is not complying spec . please help regarding this issues.
