All Flashcards
The difference between no-load voltage and full-load voltage, expressed as the percentage of full-load voltage, is called ?
Voltage regulation
Improving the power factor in a circuit reduces the amount of ? or current needed to supply the load.
Apparent power
The extent of the voltage drop depends on?
on how the current flow is impeded.
A piece of equipment that improves the power factor, reduces the reactance on the line, reduces the current, and improves the voltage is a(n) ? .
Capacitor
One way to reduce the capacitive reactance caused by the parallel conductors on very long transmission lines is to install ? .
Reactors
The leads going in and out of a set of voltage regulators do not need to be the same size as the main line conductors.
True
To improve the voltage on a feeder, it is usually more economical to install ? than to carry out a major improvement program such as stringing larger conductors.
Voltage regulators
A recloser is most often set to trip out at ? times its rating.
2
The part of a recloser that senses a fault is the ? .
Solenoid coil
A(n) ? recloser has a cold-load pickup feature.
Electronic
Sectionalizers are not designed to interrupt ? .
Fault current
Type H reclosers contain coils that vary in size from five amperes to ? .
50a
On type H reclosers, the fastest curve is the ? curve.
A
The two types of faults that will cause a recloser to operate are
temporary and permanent.
Type L reclosers vary in size from ? to ? .
25A/280a
