Voltage and current ,range of all voltages

Voltage and Current
              As an expression of potential energy is always relative between two locations or points.Some times it is called a voltage drop.When a voltage source is connected to a circuit the voltage will cause a uniform flow of charge carriers through that circuit called a current.

Low Voltage 100--1000v
Medium Voltage 1kv--100kv
High Voltage  100kv--345kv
Extra High Voltage  345kv--765kv
Ultra High Voltage     greater than 765kv


       In electrical power system low voltage most commonly refer to the main voltages as used by domestic and light industries commercial consumers.
   Colour coding of LV power cable
 1-Phase-1 :Red colour.
 2-Phase-2 :Yellow colour.
 3-Phase-3 :Blue colour.
 4-ground green or Green/yellow colour.

What are delta connections,current voltage anf power in delta connections,summery of delta connection,uses/advantages of delta connection

Delta Connection            A delta connection is a connection used in a three phase electrical system in which three elements in series form a triangle ,the supply being input and output at the three junctions.            It is also known as 3 phase 3 wire system.It is preferably used in AC transmission.It is denoted by  Δ . The other name of delta connection is Mesh connection .               In case of Delta connection all the three coils are connected in series to form a close circuit.From each junction we take out one wire and out-going current from each junction assumed to be positive.In case of delta connection it look like a short circuit but in case of balance load the sum of all voltage should be zero.              In the following fig. all values Current,Voltages and power for 3 phase delta connection can be shown. fig ...

What is a full wave Rectifier? Comparison of HW-rectifiers and FW-rectifiers,Simple FW-rectifier with center-tapped transformer its working,Efficiency of FW-rectifier

Image
Full-Wave Rectifiers                There are two types of full-wave rectifier circuits.one is uses two diodes with a center tapped transformer and the transformer have equal turns Ns1 and Ns2 of the secondary windings which is shown in the fig. below The second type of FW-rectifier is having bridge-rectifier circuit and uses four diodes and it does not require a center-tapped transformer it only have simple transformer. fig. Comparison of HW Rectifiers and FW  Rectifiers                  The FW-rectifier circuits are better if we compare with HW rectifier circuits in all most all respects.FW-rectifiers have double the value of dc voltage delivered to load their efficiency is also double and their ripple factor is low.Due to these reasons FW-rectifiers are preferred over HW-rectifiers. Simple FW-Rectifier with Center-Tapped Transformer fig        ...

Semiconductor

Semiconductor               A semiconductor is a material that imparts current but only partially.Its conductivity lies between a conductor which has fully conductivity and an insulator which has negligible conductivity.             Semiconductors can be pure elements such as silicon or germanium or compounds such as gallium arsenide or cadmium selenide.In a process called doping small amount of impurities are added to pure semiconductors causing large changes in the conductivity of the material. Doping Process         The pure semiconductor is basically neutral.It contains no free electrons in its conduction bands.Even with the application of thermal energy.Only a few covalent bonds are broken yielding a relatively small current flow.A much more efficient method of increasing current flow in semiconductors is by adding very small amounts of selected additives to them generally no more...
