#26. Lightning arresters are used in power system to protect electrical equipments against….?
#27. Series capacitor is used in a transmission line to….?
#28. Which of the following is the protective device against lightning over voltages?
#29. Fusing factor is the ratio of…..?
#30. fusing factor of HRC Fuse is….?
#31. A relay is connected to a 400/5 current transformer and set at 150%. with a primary fault current of 2400A, Calculated the Plug setting multiplier?
incorrect
pick up value= rated sec.current x current setting= 5 x 1.5=7.5A
fault current in relay coil= 2400 x (5/400)=30A
PSM=30/7.5=4
