Availability of ratings 400 kV, 200 kV, 110 kV , 66 kV, 33 kV. 11 Kv, 6.6 Kv, 3.3 Kv, 440 V,230 V
Maximum rating of usage Power transformers are used for rating above Distribution transformers are used for rating
200 MVA less than 200 MVA
Designed Efficiency Designed for maximum efficiency of 100% Designed for 50-70% efficiency
Efficiency formula Efficiency is measured as the ratio of output to Here All Day Efficiency is considered. It is the
the input power ratio of output in kilowatt hour (kWh) or watt
hour (Wh) to the input in kWh or Wh of a
transformer over 24 hours.
Application Used in generating stations and transmission Used in distribution stations, also for industrial
substations and domestic purposes
Losses Copper and iron losses take place throughout Iron losses take place for 24 hours and copper
the day losses are based on load cycle
Load fluctuation In power transformer the load fluctuations are Load fluctuations are very high
very less
Operating condition Always operated at full load Operated at load less than full load as load cycle

Flux density In power transformer flux density is higher As compared to power transformer the flux
density is lower in distribution transformer
Designing of the core Designed to utilize the core for maximum and As compared to power transformer the flux

• @ Microcontroller is for programming the chips on boards to do specific jobs and the you should complete the circuit on
the board with relays and other stuff to regulate the current , used in other things that doesn't need changes , it consist
of IC with various number of Input or output.
• @ PLC is an infinitely expandable input or output logic controller generally programmed with a external PC program.
Electrical wire
• A wire may well be a single, usually cylindrical, versatile strand or rod of metal. Wires are
used to electricity and telecommunications signals. Wire is typically formed by drawing the
metal through a hole during a die or draw plate.
• Electrical cable:-
• An cable is made of two or lots of wires running one by one and bonded, twisted, or
embellished together to create one assembly, the ends of which can be connected to a pair
of devices, sanctioned the transfer of electrical signals from one device to the alternative.
