Murray loop test is performed on a faulty cable 300 m long. At balance, the resistance connected to the faulty core was set at 20 Ω and the resistance of the resistor connected to the sound core was 40 Ω. Calculate the distance of the fault point from the test end.
A remote terminal unit (RTU) is a microprocessor-controlled electronic device that interfaces objects in the physical world to a distributed control system or SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) system by transmitting telemetry data to a master system and by using messages from the master supervisory. This is accomplished by transmitting telemetry data to the system and/or changing the physical state of connected objects based on control messages received from the automation system. It is used to interface field devices with SCADA. RTUs can support multiple communication protocols at the same time. A limited number of input and output devices can be added to it.
Here auto transformer change voltage from 600 V to 200 V. Voltage ratio (a) = 600/200 = 3 kVA rating of the auto-transformer = (a/(a - 1))*(kVA rating of auto transformer) = (3/2)*20 = 30 kVA
Covered Conductor is extensively used in voltage up gradation projects ranging between 6.6KV to 33 KV. Covered Conductors are longitudinally water blocked and covered with special grades of materials that provide insulation and ultraviolet protection.
