A THHN conductor will have 75°C termination on one end and a 60/75°C termination on the other, which ampacity column will be used?
Conductor with 75 °C temperature rating must have ampacity from the 60°C column or the 75°C column. It is permissible to use the 75°C rating if the installed conductor is rated at least 75 °C. Because all of the connection points in this example have at least a 75°C rating, the conductor’s ampacity can be based on the 75°C column
Symmetrical breaking current: It is the rms value of a a.c component of the current in the pole at the instant of contact separation.
Asymmetrical breaking current: It is the rms value of the total current comprising the a.c and d.c components of the current in the pole at the instant of contact separation.
In bias differential protection for transformer, There are two basic settings required to setup the percentage biased differential protection. 1. Minimum pickup 2. The slope.
The minimum pick-up covers the transformer magnetizing current typically 1-4% of transformer rating. A pick up of 0.2 to 0.3 times the TAP is recommended for general cases.
The slope is defined by determining the potential sources of differential current.
As per the key statistics data of IEA With electricity consumption reached to 1,164 TWh in the country till November 2019, India ranked third among the top ten electricity consuming countries across the globe.
