Explanation of Solution

Discussion:

The electrical machinery is usually operated with high voltage and the rotational machines are rotated with high speeds. Therefore, it is required to take much care to install, maintain, and operate the electrical machinery. The improper maintenance of electrical machinery leads to serious and fatal injuries to the person who maintains the machinery.

The characteristics that are required to a person to maintain and operate the electrical machinery are written as follows:

  • The person must be a skilled and qualified electrician.
  • The person must have a safety conscious.
  • The person must be an experienced electrician.

Conclusion:

Thus, the characteristics of a person to operate and maintain electrical machinery are listed.

A 3-phase, 4-wire distributor supplies a balanced voltage of 400/230 V to a load consisting of 8 A at p.f. 0-7 lagging for R-phase, 10 A at p.f. 0-8 leading for Y phase and 12 A at unity p.f. for B phase. The resistance of each line conductor is 0.4 2. The reactance of neutral is 0.2 2. Calculate the neutral current, the supply voltage for R phase and draw the phasor diagram. The phase sequence is RYB.
The three line leads of a 400/230 V, 3-phase, 4-wire supply are designated as R, Y and B respectively. The fourth wire or neutral wire is designated as N. The phase sequence is RYB. Compute the currents in the four wire when the following loads are connected to this supply: From R to N: 25 kW, unity power factor. From Y to N: 20 kVA, 0-7 lag. From B to N: 30 kVA, 0-6 lead.
