Short Circuit Current Calculations for Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical faults It is not practical to design a power system which is free from failure. Hence we need to design […]
VRLA Battery sizing calculation for UPS
BATTERY SIZING Let us have total load of 16 kW with 0.8 pf, which needs to be supported by battery backup for at least 1 hr, when the […]
Motor Protection – Overcurrent and Earth-fault
Motor Protection – Over Current and Earth Fault: Motor Protection – If the motor is heavily loaded beyond its capacity, then it is said to be in an […]
Transformer Protection – Overcurrent and Earth-fault
Transformer Protection: Transformer Protection – Transformers are static devices, totally enclosed and generally oil immersed. Therefore, chances of faults occurring on them are very rare. However, the consequences […]
Contingency analysis
It the is most important to assess the capability of the power system to meet the load without violating voltage and equipment loading limits Contingency analysis is most […]
FCMA Starters
FCMA (Flux Compensated Magnetic Amplifier) Electrical Soft Starter are step-less voltage-reducing starters. It ensures a constant low starting current with incremental voltage and torque to the motor, to […]
Common sources of harmonics in power systems
What are harmonics in renewable energy sources? Growing Inverter Based renewables Solar and wind power systems, which rely on inverters to convert DC power to AC, maintaining power […]
Optimizing Power System Protection: Importance and Implementation
Protection: The primary goal of protection in power systems is to detect and isolate faults promptly, preventing damage to equipment, minimizing downtime, and safeguarding personnel. Protection is achieved […]
