SSC JE Electrical 2019 with solution SET-2
Under no-load conditions in transmission lines, the receiving end voltage is greater than the sending end voltage. This effect is called
Indian Electricity Rules specify that the maximum load on a light/fan sub-circuit should not exceed 800 watts and the number of points should be limited to 10. Hence for light load number of sub-circuit = 3000/800 = 3.75 = 4 Indian Electricity Rules specify that the maximum load on a power sub-circuit should not exceed 3000 watts and the number of outlets should be limited to two. For the power sub-circuit load number of sub-circuit = 6000/3000 = 2 Total subcircuit = 4 + 2 = 6
The melting point of Eureka is 1221 to 1300 °C The melting point of Kanthal is 1,425 °C The melting point of Nichrome is 1400 °C The melting point of Graphite is 3,600°C Hence Eureka has the least range of temperature.
Skin Effect The steady direct current distributes itself uniformly over the whole section of a conductor but the alternating current does not distribute uniformly rather than it tends to concentrate near the surface of a conductor. In fact in the AC system, no current flows through the core and the entire current is concentric at the surface regions. This phenomenon is called skin effect. The skin effect causes the effective resistance of the conductor to increase with the frequency of the current. The skin effect is due to eddy currents set up by the AC current. The skin effect has practical consequences in the design of radiofrequency and microwave circuits and to some extent in AC electrical power transmission and distribution systems.
