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.
1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils
Die-electric test on Circuit breaker: These tests are performed to check power frequency and impulse voltage withstand capacity. Power frequency tests are kept on a new circuit breaker, the test voltage changes with a circuit breaker rated voltage. In impulse tests, impulse voltage of particular value is employed to the breaker.
