A P-N junction acts as a voltage-controlled switch. During forward biasied the p-n junction diode acts like an ON switch. When reverse biased, it acts like an OFF switch.
The commutator is a feature of d.c.motors. But a.c. motors having wound rotor with brushes and commutator arrangements, are called commutator motors that work on single-phase a.c. supply. The commutator arrangement present in these motors is similar to the armature of a d.c. motor.E.g. of single-phase commutator type induction motor is Repulsion Motor Repulsion-Induction Motor AC Series Motor Universal Motor
No of disc required for 11 kV transmission line = 1 disc Since the transmission line is 3-phase, therefore, the number of discs required for a single-pole will be 3. Total no. of poles = 80 No of disc = 3 × 80 = 240
A phase sequence is an order or sequence in which the currents or voltages of different phases attain their maximum values. In a three-phase system, there are only two possible phase sequences: R-Y-B (positive Phase Sequence) and R-B-Y (Negative Phase Sequence).
