Ohm’s law describes the amount of resistance the current has to face while it travels between two points. Definition: Ohm’s law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points, given that the physical conditions such as length of wire, temperature etc remain constant. What’s actually […]
Dioder is a semiconductor device with two terminals, typically allowing the flow of current in one direction only. Diodes allow current to flow when the anode is positive in relation to the cathode. It is sometimes useful to summarise the different types of diode that are available. Some of the categories may overlap, but the […]
Air Circuit Breaker (ACB) is an electrical device used to provide Overcurrent and short-circuit protection for electric circuits over 800 Amps to 10K Amps. These are usually used in low voltage applications below 450V. there are two types of air circuit breakers 1.Air-Break Circuit Breakers In Air-Break Circuit breaker the contact separation and arc extinction occur in […]
Fundamental difference is that Relay is a sensing device where as Circuit Breaker is a fault interrupting equipment. Relay is a protective device which senses the faulty conditions in a power system line and initiates the operation of circuit breaker to isolate the faulty part from the rest of the healthy power system.Examples of relays are […]
As a general rule, construction of an induction motor consists essentially of two main parts : a) a stator and b) a rotor In rotor construction, there are two types of motors are coming.. Squirrel cage rotor motor Phase wound or wound rotor motor Let’s know something about the construction: Squirrel cage rotor: Almost 90% […]

Step-1: Calculate the volume of mortar required. I am calculating it for 1 Sqm and 12 mm thickness (Assumption). So, Volume of plaster = Area […]
Power transformers are used for transmission & receiving purpose, whereas distribution transformers are used only for distribution purpose. Power transformer voltage ratio varies b/w 756 kV to 11kV. Whereas the distribution transformer voltage ratio varies b/w 33kV to 430V. Power transformers usually have higher MVA rating compare to distribution transformers.

DC motors are classified into shunt motor Series motor Compound motor The compound motor is again classified as Long shunt motor — in long shunt, the shunt field is parallel with both the armature winding and series winding. Short shunt motor- in short shunt, the shunt field is only parallel with armature winding. A compound […]
The figure shown explains the difference between AM & FM. A high-frequency carrier is used in both the modulation schemes. In AM, the amplitude of the carrier signal is modulated according to the varying amplitudes of the input signal (Black color), maintaining constant frequency for the resultant AM signal (Red color) In FM, the […]
Aside from the fact that they have totally opposite effects on the current in a circuit, capacitors and inductors are two totally different but equally important components of modern electronics. An inductor is nothing more than a coil of wire, with as few as two loops up to hundreds of loops wrapped around a core. […]
Single phase and three phase are two forms of alternating current which involve a sinusoidally varying voltage or current. The single phase is used in a place where less power is required and for running the small loads. The three phases are used in large industries, factories and in the manufacturing unit where a large […]
Current Transformer If the CT is under service the secondary of a C.T cannot be open circuited on any condition. The CT can be regarded as a series transformer. The current in the primary side of a C.T is independent of the secondary also known as the burden. The primary winding of the CT is […]
A current transformer is a device which produces an alternating current in its secondary which is proportional to the alternating current in its primary. A current transformer (C.T.) is used where the current is too high to measure directly, or the voltage in the primary circuit is too high, so the galvanic isolation between primary […]
The universal motor is nothing but dc series motor. When dc motor is supplied with AC supply then torque generated is positive for both half cycles. Because during the negative half cycle, armature current reverses and flux also reverses so that resultant torque is in the same direction as that of the positive half cycle. […]
Let’s start with this. There are three types of power. Apparent power (KVA), Reactive power or wattless power (KVAR) and Active power or useful power(KW). Let’s take an example of the motor. Electricity board provides us KVA. As we know we need to set up magnetic field within motor for conversion of electrical energy to […]
A power transformer is usually employed for the purpose of converting power, from one voltage to another. If it is used for converting power from a high voltage to a low voltage, it is called a step-down transformer. The conversion efficiency of a power transformer is extremely high and almost all of the input power […]
what is armature winding? The winding from which you will get the output will be termed as armature winding . and the other winding will be called a field winding. Let me explain How? In case of D.c machines, we say that field winding is present on the stator field part and armature on the […]
The lightning arrester protects the electrical equipment from lightning. It is placed very near to the equipment and when the lightning occurs the arrester diverts the high voltage wave of lightning to the ground. The selection of arrester depends on the various factors like voltage, current, reliability, etc. The lightning arrestor is mainly classified into […]
There are main three categories of insulator that is used as an overhead insulator: Pin Insulator Suspension Insulator Strain Insulator Pin Insulator Pin Insulator is one the youngest overhead insulator, that has a capacity up to 33 KV system. It has one part, two parts, and three parts type, which totally depends upon voltage that has been […]
The motor is an electromechanical device, which consists of rotating conductors and magnetic field to transform electrical energy into mechanical torque. Whereas pump is a hydro-mechanical device that converts mechanical torque into hydraulic/pressure energy. Motoring action ( electric one ) obtained based on Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction and motor law. Whereas pumping action achieved […]
A DC motor works in the same principle as an AC motor, with a mechanism to allow it to rotate even if the supply is not alternating. After all, simple motors work because the direction of current reverses (alternates) every half cycle, rendering the armature to rotate. Now, why does the current have to alternate to […]
A transformer is a device working on mutual inductance principle to convert electrical energy from one voltage/ current level to another. There are different types of transformers used for different purposes. (1) POWER TRANSFORMER Laminated core Transformer Toroidal Transformer Auto transformer Variable auto transformer Induction regulator Transformer(high voltage transformer) Polyphase transformer Grounding transformer Phase-shifting transformer Variable-frequency […]
A contractor is an electromagnetic device which is used to make or break of an electrical circuit. there is two type of contractor. power contactor. auxiliary contactor. Power contactor is used in power circuit like switch on/off of a motor capacitor. while auxiliary contactor is used to switch on or off of a control circuit. a power contactor have 3 main contacts while an auxiliary contactor has many contacts like 1no+1nc 2no+2nc ect..power contactor is generally used where we required to make and break a large current carrying circuit. The Relay is similar to an auxiliary contactor which is used […]

For this purpose, we will give some basic trick to measure dimensions such as degrees and length by using human hand For example, if […]
Foundations are broadly classified as : Shallow Foundations Deep Foundations According to Karl von Terzaghi, a foundation is shallow if its depth is equal to or less than its width. Foundations constructed by open excavation are also called shallow foundations. The term footing is used in conjunction with shallow foundations commonly. A footing is a foundation unit constructed in brickwork, masonry or concrete […]
