NOV Process & Flow Technologies UK Junior Engineer Electrical Interview Questions and Answers

Q1. What is transformer?
Ans. 
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy between two or more circuits through electromagnetic induction.
• Consists of two coils of wire, known as primary and secondary coils

• Primary coil receives electrical energy and creates a magnetic field

• Magnetic field induces a voltage in the secondary coil, transferring energy

• Used to step up or step down voltage in power distribution systems

• Examples include power t...read more

Q2. Types of transformer?
Ans. 
Types of transformers include step-up, step-down, isolation, autotransformer, and instrument transformer.
• Step-up transformer increases voltage

• Step-down transformer decreases voltage

• Isolation transformer provides electrical isolation between primary and secondary windings

• Autotransformer has a single winding with multiple taps

• Instrument transformer is used for measuring current or voltage in high voltage circuits

Q5. What is current
Ans. 
Current is the flow of electric charge in a circuit.
• Current is measured in Amperes (A).

• It is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point in a circuit.

• Current can be either direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC).

• In a series circuit, the current is the same at all points.

• In a parallel circuit, the total current is divided among the branches.

• Ohm's Law relates current, voltage, and resistance: I = V/R.

Q6. What is voltage
Ans. 
Voltage is the difference in electric potential between two points in a circuit, measured in volts.
• Voltage is the driving force that pushes electric current through a circuit

• It is measured in volts (V)

• Higher voltage means more potential energy available to move electrons

• Voltage can be DC (direct current) or AC (alternating current)

• Example: A battery provides a voltage of 1.5V to power a flashlight

Q1. Where do we use BigInteger in java ?
Ans. 
BigInteger is used for mathematical operations involving very large integers in Java.
• BigInteger is used when the range of values supported by primitive data types like int and long is not sufficient.

• It is commonly used in cryptography and security applications.

• It provides methods for arithmetic, bitwise, and logical operations on large integers.

• Example: calculating factorial of a large number, generating large prime nu
