Chapter 4, Problem 4.1MCQ
ACSR stands for
- Aluminum-clad steel conductor
- Aluminum conductor steel supported
- Aluminum conductor steel reinforced
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The full-form of ACSR.
Answer to Problem 4.1MCQ
The correct option is (c), aluminium conductor steel reinforced.
Explanation of Solution
The ACSR stands for aluminium conductor steel-reinforced. It is one of the most common conductor types which consists of aluminium strands layer that surrounds a central core of steel strand. Steel strands used in ACSR conductors gives a high strength-to-weight ratio. The outer aluminium strands have good conductivity, low weight and low cost. ACSR is mainly used in overhead power lines because of its high-capacity and high strength.
So, the correct option is (c).

- Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are diodes made with III-V compound semiconductor materials such as aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs), aluminum indium gallium phosphide (AlInGaP) or indium gallium nitride (InGaN), instead of silicon. The LEDs emit light when the device is operated under forward bias. LEDs of different colors have different turn-on voltages VD(on). For example: VD(on) : Red: ~ 1.6 V Yellow: ~ 1.7 V Green: ~ 1.8 V Blue: ~ 2.8 V White: ~ 3.8 V (a) Model these five LEDs with a simplified piecewise linear model (b) A rule of thumb is that it takes about 1 mA of current to “light” an LED while ~ 10 mA is needed for it to appear bright. Use the piecewise linear model for the LEDs, for the over-voltage indicator circuit to the right, find the values of Vin which will cause D1 or D2 to light (i.e. when ID1 or ID2 exceeds 1 mA).arrow_forwardConsider a fixed and updated instrumentation amplifier (where two resistors are lumped into one resistor), analyze the circuit if a common voltage source (VICM) is connected to two inputs.
