By inserting a plate of dielectric material between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor at constant potential, the energy stored in the capacitor is increased five times. The dielectric constant of the material is
The methods often employed in practice to improve system stability are: 1. Increasing System Voltage 2. Reduction in Transfer Reactance 3. Using High Speed Circuit Breaker 4. Automatic Reclosing 5. Transient Stability 6. Turbine Fast Valving 7. Application of Braking Resistors 8. Single Pole Switching:
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.
