Direct OnLine Starter or DOL Motor Starter

Direct On-Line motor starter is the most common and economic motor starting technique. Widely used technique in industry. Let's see the principle, advantages & disadvantages...

Among all the motor starters DOL STARTER is very popular and most commonly used technique.


The power circuit is drawn below.

Power Factor Improvement

MONEY FOR EVERYTHING, IMPROVE THE POWER FACTOR OR PAY MORE TO GET LESS!!!

Definition of POWER FACTOR:

All electrical circuit when switched on, and is charged with voltage, there has always been an Electrical angle difference between the applied voltage and current. Cosine of that angle is called POWER FACTOR.

Transformer Phasor Diagram


TRANSFORMER IS THE MOST USED ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT IN INDUSTRY. LET US SEE A DIAGRAMMATIC REPRESENTATION OF ITS WORKING PRINCIPLE, CALLED "PHASOR DIAGRAM" ALSO KNOWN AS "VECTOR DIAGRAM"


Before starting the "Phasor  Diagram" we should know how electrical model of a transformer looks. It is called Equivalent circuit of a transformer.

Say the Primary winding has T1 turns & Secondary winding has T2 turns, then,
(E1/E2)=(T1/T2)

Restricted Earth Fault Protection-CT SELECTION-PART 2 :KNEE POINT VOLTAGE AND STABILIZING RESISTOR SELECTION

SELECTION OF PROPER CURRENT TRANSFORMER IS ONE OF THE IMPORTANT PART OF A PERFECT PROTECTIVE SYSTEM. IF THE PROTECTION IS DONE BY DIFFERENTIAL THEN IT HAS THE MOST IMPORTANCE.....

In the previous article "Restricted Earth Fault Protection-CT SELECTION-PART 1 :RATIO SELECTION" we have seen methods of CT ratio selection for REF protection. In this artcle we shall learn how the other parameters like knee point voltage and stabilizing resistors are selected.

Installation location of CT and the restricted earth fault (REF) relay have a very important role in knee point voltage selection, also stabilizing resistor design. Let's see how.
