    I want to select the HV connector f

    Thank for your support. I have to say that jbator and scottf have different Idea. Let's look at the following data regarding the material's normal potential against hydrogen: Al : -1.45 volt Tin : -0.146 Cu : +0.35 If the Aluminum be in contact with Tin, the voltage difference will be 1.304...

    HV terminal connector

    As far as I know, there is no specific guideline in NEMA CC1-2002 for selecting the number of bolt holes for a terminal connectors. It only introduces the typical configurations in Appendix A. As it is clear, the number of bolt holes is related to the rated current of connector. Is there any...

    Cabling

    I want to do the cabling design in a 230/63kV substation. Is it necessary to segregate the measuring cables (CT, VT) from control cables along the cable route. The measuring cables are shielded wire armoured. and the control cables are wire armoured. Is there explicit rule in this respect?

    Contactor selection

    Dear Hannes thank you for reply the reduction factor of 10 can give me a quite sufficient margin to break the loads. as I understood this factor is practical ,so is there any standard describing this relation or is there any evidence in technical literatures or catalogues?

    Contactor selection

    I want to use a Telemechanique D9 contactor for interruption of DC loads as follows: 1- 24VDC, 0.5A, ( one drain diode is mounted at outgoing terminal) 2- 220VDC, 40mA Since I do not have information from DC interruption capacity of both main contact and auxiliary contact of such contactor...

    Isolated ground for instrument and computers

    According the IEEE80 standard there is only one grounding system in substations and power stations. and all electrical devices as well as computers and electronic devices and metalic parts are to be connected to the same ground system. The reason is very clear, but in some industrial plant such...
