in a plug point why the hole size at the top is large?
Answer Posted / tharanidharan a
In a three pin plug ,the base two pins arranged serially are
PHASE and NEUTRAL. and the top most large sized pin is made
for grounding purpose which is used to protect the device from
shorts(high and low voltages)
example:
when a three point charger is inserted the top larger pin will
touch first than the rest so that the device is prevented by
ground

A 15 kw squirrel cage motor having a maximum efficiency of 90% on a continuous full load has temperature rise of 42 degrees celcius after 30 min and 52 degrees celcius after 1 hr under the above operation conditions. a) calculate its final steady state temperature rise on continuous load and the heating time constatnt. b) if the motor is operated on a short load for 9 min estimate its temperature rise. c) calculate the maximum overload that can be applied on a short, 9 min rating so that the temperature rise is the same as the final steady state temperature rise on continuous load.
