  • Q1. What is transformer and working principles of transformer
  • Ans. 

    A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through electromagnetic induction.

    • Transformers work on the principle of electromagnetic induction

    • They have two coils, primary and secondary, wound around a common magnetic core

    • When an alternating current flows through the primary coil, it creates a magnetic field which induces a voltage in the secondary coil

    • The voltage in...

  • Q2. What is motor working principles and testing of motor etc
  • Ans. 

    Motor working principles involve the interaction between magnetic fields and electric currents to produce rotational motion.

    • Electric current is passed through a coil of wire, creating a magnetic field that interacts with the magnetic field of a permanent magnet to produce rotational force.

    • The direction of the current determines the direction of the rotation.

    • Motor testing involves measuring the motor's performance chara...

  • Q2. Which conductor of same size will take larger current Al or Cu?
  • Ans. 

    Copper (Cu) conductor will take larger current than Aluminum (Al) conductor of the same size.

    • Copper has a higher electrical conductivity than Aluminum.

    • Copper has a lower resistivity than Aluminum.

    • Copper has better thermal conductivity than Aluminum.

    • Copper is more commonly used in high-current applications.

    • Aluminum is often used in overhead power transmission lines due to its lighter weight.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. What is pulse width modulation in VFD?
  • Ans. 

    Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a technique used in VFD to control the speed of the motor by adjusting the width of the pulses of voltage supplied to the motor.

    • PWM is a method of controlling the amount of power delivered to a load without changing the voltage level.

    • In VFD, PWM is used to control the speed of the motor by varying the width of the pulses of voltage supplied to the motor.

    • The width of the pulses is control...
