Type B MCB: Type B devices are generally suitable for domestic applications. They are designed to trip at fault currents of 3 - 5 times rated current.
Type C MCB: Type C devices are the normal choice for commercial and industrial applications These devices are designed to trip at 5 - 10 times rated current
Type D MCB: The Type D devices have more limited applications, normally in industrial use where high inrush currents may be expected. Type D devices are designed to trip at 10 - 20 times.
The ratio of full load current to short circuit current = 1/6 Xsc = j/(1/6) External reactance required = j*((1/6) - 0.06)) = j*0.106 pu Full load current = (40*1000)/(√3*15) = 1539.6 A Per unit reactance = j*0.106 = (I*Xr)/V j*0.15 = (1539.6*Xb)/((15/√3)*1000)) = 0.60 ohm
Frequency response analysis is the technique whereby a sinusoidal test signal is used to measure points on the frequency response of a transfer function or impedance function. Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) testing provides insight into the mechanical and electrical integrity of transformers.
Main Purpose of SFRA Test: Transformer Core displacement Winding displacement for both rotor and transformer Broken or loosen clamp connections Inter turn short circuit Internal short circuit Winding to Core Earth fault Winding Open circuit condition
Differential Pilot Wire Protection is simply a differential protection scheme applied to feeders. Several differential schemes are applied for protection of line but Mess Price Voltage balance system and Translay Scheme are most popularly used.
1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils
