A power system is a network of electrical components used to generate, transmit, and distribute electrical power.
Power systems consist of power plants, transformers, transmission lines, and distribution networks.
They are designed to deliver electricity from power plants to consumers.
Power systems can be categorized into three main types: generation, transmission, and distribution.
Examples of power systems include the e...
The formula for I squared R is used to calculate the power dissipated in a resistor.
I squared R is equal to the current (I) squared multiplied by the resistance (R)
It is commonly used in electrical engineering to determine the power loss in a resistor
For example, if the current flowing through a resistor is 2A and the resistance is 5 ohms, the power dissipated can be calculated as (2^2) * 5 = 20 watts
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).
Rectifiers are commonly used in power supplies to convert AC voltage to DC voltage.
They consist of diodes that allow current to flow in only one direction.
Rectifiers are used in various applications such as battery charging, electroplating, and welding.
Examples of rectifiers include half-wave rectifiers, full-wave rectifie
A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through electromagnetic induction.
Transformers are used to increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current (AC) power supply.
They consist of two coils of wire, called the primary and secondary, wrapped around a magnetic core.
When an AC current flows through the primary coil, it creates a magnetic field that ind...

Copper and aluminum are commonly used conductors in transmission.
Copper is an excellent conductor due to its high electrical conductivity.
Aluminum is also widely used as it is lightweight and cost-effective.
Other conductors like silver and gold are rarely used due to their high cost.
Copper-clad steel conductors are used in specific applications where strength is required.
Different types of tests related to transformers include routine tests, type tests, and special tests.
Routine tests are performed on every transformer and include measurement of winding resistance, insulation resistance, and voltage ratio.
Type tests are performed on a sample transformer to verify its design and include temperature rise test, impulse test, and short-circuit test.
Special tests are performed on transforme...

Star delta connection is used in electrical engineering to reduce starting current and torque in induction motors.
Reduces starting current by starting the motor in star connection and then switching to delta connection
Reduces starting torque to prevent mechanical stress on the motor
Commonly used in applications where high starting current or torque could be damaging, such as large industrial motors
Before starting electrical activity, I ensure all safety precautions are in place and equipment is functioning properly.
Perform a safety check on all equipment and tools
Verify that all connections are secure and wires are properly insulated
Double check the circuit design and calculations for accuracy
Ensure proper grounding is in place to prevent electrical hazards

I applied via Walk-in and was interviewed before Sep 2022. There were 3 interview rounds.
Power generation equipment includes generators, turbines, and transformers for producing electricity.
Generators convert mechanical energy into electrical energy
Turbines use steam, water, or wind to rotate a shaft connected to a generator
Transformers increase or decrease voltage for efficient transmission and distribution
Examples: gas turbines, hydroelectric generators, step-up transformers
Power formula: P = V x I, Transformer capacity/amp formula: Capacity = V x I, where V is voltage and I is current.
Power formula: P = V x I (P = power, V = voltage, I = current)
Transformer capacity formula: Capacity = V x I (Capacity = transformer capacity, V = voltage, I = current)
