1) What is difference b/w impedence relay and differential relay?

2) what are substations equipments?

3) what is difference b/w circuit breaker and isolator?

4)what are the types of circuit breakers?

5) which medium is mostlty used in circuit breakers and why it is used?

Answer Posted / aariz ali

1)impedence relay is used for transmission lines protrction and diffrential relay is used for alternator protection.
also you can give their operational dirrerence.
2)ans: transformers, circuit breakers, isolators , realys etc ETC....
3)ans: the main difference is of the arc quenching medium which is only used in circuit breakers but not in isolator.
4) ans: air blast, vaccum, sf6, oil circuit breakers.
5)ans: SF6 medium is most commonly used because:
-sf6 gas is non inflammable so there is no any risk of fire in these ckt breakers.
-sf6 has high dielectric strenght so these breakers have short arcing time
- due to enclosed circuit these breakers have no moisture problem.
-small noise
etc etc.

generally in LT and MV motors we are using 3.5Coresx16,25,35,50 etc cable for supply.although motors is earthed at two point and having all protection.then why we are using that 1/2 core for earthing the motors.while in HT cable we are using only 3core cable for motor supply.generally lt and mv motors are delta connected and ht motors having star connection.whethere it is having any relation with winding connection( star or delta).all motors i am talking about are dol only.can anybody solve my confusion.thanks...
