Lighting Arrestor
Arrestor have Two Rating:
1. MCOV=Max. Continuous Line to Ground Operating Voltage.
2. Duty Cycle Voltage. (Duty Cycle Voltage > MCOV).
Transformer
Diesel Generator
Current Transformer
Nomenclature of CT:
Star Connection
1KW = 1.36HP
Delta Connection
1KWH = 3.6 MJ
1Cal = 4.186 J
Length)/50).
Protection radius of Lighnting Arrestor = h x (2D-h) + (2D+L).
Where h= height of L.A, D-distance of equipment (20, 40, 60 Meter), L=V x t (V=1m/ms,
t=Discharge Time).
Size of Lightning Arrestor = 1.5x Phase to Earth Voltage or 1.5 x (System Voltage/1.732).
Maximum Voltage of the System = 1.1xRated Voltage (Ex. 66KV = 1.1 66 = 72.6KV)
Load Factor = Average Power/Peak Power
If Load Factor is 1 or 100% = This is best situation for System and Consumer both.
If Load Factor is Low (0 or 25%) = you are paying maximum amount of KWH consumption.
Load Factor may be increased by switching or use of your Electrical Application.
Demand Factor = Maximum Demand / Total Connected Load (Demand Factor <1)
Demand factor should be applied for Group Load
Diversity Factor =
