Transformers have two windings, primary and secondary, which are used to transfer electrical energy from one circuit to another.
Primary winding receives electrical energy from the source
Secondary winding transfers the electrical energy to the load
The ratio of turns in the primary and secondary windings determines the voltage transformation
Transformers can step up or step down voltage levels
Examples: power transformers,
Transformers in oil are used for insulation and cooling purposes.
Oil acts as an insulating medium to prevent electrical breakdown
Oil also helps in dissipating heat generated during operation
Commonly used oils include mineral oil, silicone oil, and vegetable oil
Transformers are used to step up or step down voltage levels in electrical circuits.
Transformers consist of primary and secondary coils wound around a core
Step-up transformers increase voltage levels, while step-down transformers decrease voltage levels
Transformers work on the principle of electromagnetic induction
They are used in power distribution systems, electrical appliances, and electronic devices
I appeared for an interview in Jan 2023.
The neutral wire carries current back to the source, while the earth wire provides a path for electrical faults to safely discharge.

There are mainly two types of solar panel installation: On-grid and Off-grid.
On-grid installation is connected to the main power grid and excess energy can be sold back to the utility company.
Off-grid installation is not connected to the main power grid and requires battery storage to store excess energy.
Other types include ground-mounted, roof-mounted, and pole-mounted installations.
Installation methods can also vary
Transformer maintenance involves regular inspection, cleaning, and testing to ensure optimal performance and prevent breakdowns.
Inspect transformer for signs of damage or wear
Clean transformer components and cooling system
Test transformer insulation and oil quality
Replace worn or damaged parts as needed
Perform regular maintenance according to manufacturer guidelines
Keep records of maintenance and repairs for future ref
Busbars are used to conduct large currents of electricity in a safe and efficient manner.
Busbars are made of copper or aluminum and are used to distribute power throughout a building or facility.
They are often used in switchgear and distribution panels to connect circuit breakers and other electrical equipment.
Busbars can handle high levels of current without overheating or melting, making them a reliable and safe choi...
Maintenance equipment for transformers include oil filtration systems, temperature sensors, and insulation testers.
Oil filtration systems to remove impurities and extend the life of transformer oil
Temperature sensors to monitor the temperature of the transformer and prevent overheating
Insulation testers to check the insulation resistance of the transformer
Dissolved gas analysis equipment to detect any faults in the tra...
A fuse is a one-time use device that melts when overloaded while a breaker can be reset and reused.
A fuse needs to be replaced after it melts while a breaker can be reset
A fuse is cheaper than a breaker
A fuse reacts faster to overloads than a breaker
A breaker can handle higher current loads than a fuse
Examples of fuses include glass tube fuses and cartridge fuses while examples of breakers include thermal-magnetic and
Yes, there are different types of wires used in transmission.
The most common types of wires used in transmission are copper, aluminum, and steel-cored aluminum.
Copper wires are the most efficient and expensive, while aluminum wires are less efficient but more affordable.
Steel-cored aluminum wires are used for long-distance transmission as they have high tensile strength.
Other types of wires used in transmission include...

Different types of cables are used for power transmission, including overhead lines, underground cables, and submarine cables.
Overhead lines are commonly used for power transmission over long distances.
Underground cables are used in urban areas where overhead lines are not feasible.
Submarine cables are used for power transmission between islands or across bodies of water.
Different types of cables, such as aluminum cabl...
Generators and alternators are both electrical machines that convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, but they differ in their construction and working principles.
Generators produce direct current (DC) while alternators produce alternating current (AC).
Generators use a commutator and brushes to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, while alternators use slip rings and brushes.
Generators are typical...
