Chapter 12, Problem 1RQ
What is the primary consideration for personnel performing transformer maintenance?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The primary consideration for personnel performing transformer maintenance.
Explanation of Solution
The primary consideration for personnel performing transformer maintenance are as mentioned below.
- The transformer is checked whether it is energized or disenerzied.
- Prepare a written switching process of each step for de-energizing the connections.
- Check all the connections exposed to power supply.
- Use of proper instruments of high voltage rating.
- The atmosphere of transformer tank is checked before entering into the tank for maintenance.
- The gloves and shoes used by personnel must be of good insulation rating.

An industrial burner uses natural gas as fuel. The natural gas consists primarily of CH4
with small quantities of several other light hydrocarbons and can be represented as
C1.16H4.32 To achieve low emissions of oxides of nitrogen, the burner operates lean at
equivalence ratio of 0.4. Assume complete combustion and answer the following
questions.
i) What is the operating air-fuel ratio (i.e. mass air/mass of fuel)? [6 marks]
ii) What is the percent excess air in the combustion products? [3 marks]
iii) What is the oxygen (O2) mole fraction in the combustion products?
