thyrite would most likely be used with
valve type lightning arresters
26
what is not an advantage of hvdc transmission lines
overall insolation requirement may be based on the peak rather than actual voltage
27
the control area =
one or more systems operating with metering and control facilities on all its ties to other systems outside the control area
28
the combine governor action and inertia of all generating units connected to a system is used to establish proper

structural drawings show: framework, floors, and ____
foundations
33
supervisory control systems differ mainly from other classes of control systems
in the manner in which commands are transmitted and received
34
the reproduction at convenient location of measurement made at remote point is called
telemetering
35
in comparing the merit of analog telemetering with those of digital telemetering it would be correct to say
undetectable errors can be introduced at all points in an analog but only at the send end of a digital system
