While estimating the overhead lines, the first and last pole is always earth connected and after every 3rd electrical pole, the fourth pole is earthed. Therefore, the approximate number of required ground set = 4
The emitter current (IE) of a transistor has two components such as base current (IB) and collector current (IC). The base current (IB) is about 2% of the emitter current (IE), but the collector current (Ia) is about 98% of the emitter current (IE). ∴ IE > IC > IB IE = IB + IC
When the field winding is connected in series with the armature winding while supplying the load then the generator is called a series generator. Current Relations As all armature, field, and load are in series they carry the same current. IL = Ise = Ia
Average speed:- The distance covered between two stops divided by the actual time of the run is known as average speed. Average speed = (Distance between stops)/(Actual time of run) Schedule speed:- It is defined as the ratio of distance covered between two stops and the total time of run including the time of the stop. Schedule speed = (Distance between stops) /(Actual time of run + Stop time) This shows that schedule speed is always smaller than the average speed. The difference is large in the case of urban and suburban services and is negligibly small in the case of main-line service.
Form factor: The ratio of r.m.s (or effective) value to average value is the form factor (Kf) of the Waveform. It has used in voltage generation and instrument correction factors. Peak factor: The ratio of maximum value to the r.m.s value is the peak factor (Kp) of the waveform. Form Factor × Peak Factor = (RMS Value / Average Value) * (Maximum Value / RMS Value) = Maximum Value / Average Value
