MENTION THREE (3) CHANGES THAT TAKES PLACE DURING CHARGING OF BATTERY.

  1. Positive plates become dark brown in colour and negative plates become grey.
  2. Specific gravity of sulphuric acid increased from 1.8 to 2.3V
  3. Voltage of each cell rises from 1.8 to 2.3V
  4. Energy is absorbed in the cell
  5. . Cell delivers gazing when the charging is completed

LIST FOUR (4) ADVANTAGES OF A TRANSFORMER. (4 MARKS)

1. It’s one of the economical devices to transmit electrical power at high voltage and current. Can also be reduced at the designed voltages when required.

2. Its efficiency is very high in comparison to other electrical machine.3. It can be operated very easily with little operation.

4. It maintenance cost is less, in comparison to other electrical machineries.

5. Number of tappings can be taken out from the secondary windings for voltage in only one transformer, which is used for transistor and low voltage appliances.

6. It can be taken from place to place very easily and it’s even used in house industry.

7. This can be designed for very high voltages, as there is much space to insulate winding

BRIEFLY EXPLAIN THE PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION OF THE FOLLOWING SPEED-CONTROL METHODS OF A D.C MACHINE

(I) Fux control. (Ii) Rheostat control. (III) voltage control
1) Flux control: For shunt motor, flux control method is frequently used because it’s simple and inexpensive. In this method, a variable resistance (known as shunt field Rheostat) is placed in series with shunt field windings.For series motor, in this method the flux produced by the series motor is varied and hence the speed. The variation of flux can be achieved in the following ways.
(I) Field diverters. (Ii) Armature diverters (III) tapped field control (IV) paralleling field coils.
(2) voltage control method: In this method, the voltage source supplying the field current is different from that which supplies the armature. This method avoids the disadvantages of poor speed regulations and low efficiency as in armature control method. However, it’s quite expensive.
3) Rheostat control DC shunt motor: In this method, speed variation is accomplished by means of variable resistance in series with the shunt field. An increase in controlling resistance will reduce the field current with a reduction in flux and an increase in speed

REQUIREMENTS FOR A TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION STATION

  1. It must provide at all time the power that consumers need
  2. It must maintain a stable normal voltage that doesn’t range more than ± 10%
  3. It must be able to maintain a stable frequency that doesn’t vary more than ± 0.1%
  4. It must supply energy at an acceptable price.
  5. It must meet/agree with the safety standard
  6. It must be environmentally friendly.

  1. I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your website.

    Do you ever run into any internet browser compatibility problems?

    A handful of my blog visitors have complained about my blog not working
    correctly in Explorer but looks great in Opera.
    Do you have any recommendations to help fix this issue?

  2. Nice weblog right here! Also your website loads up very fast!
    What web host are you the usage of? Can I get your associate
    link to your host? I desire my site loaded up as fast as
    yours lol

  3. This is the right blog for anybody who wants to understand this topic.
    You know a whole lot its almost hard to argue with
    you (not that I really would want to…HaHa). You definitely put a brand new spin on a subject that’s been discussed for many years.

    Excellent stuff, just wonderful!

  4. Do you mind if I quote a couple of your posts
    as long as I provide credit and sources back to your blog?
    My blog is in the very same niche as yours and my visitors would truly benefit from some of the information you present here.
    Please let me know if this okay with you. Many thanks!

  5. Admiring the commitment you put into your blog and in depth
    information you offer. It’s nice to come across a blog
    every once in a while that isn’t the same outdated rehashed information.
    Great read! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m including your RSS feeds
    to my Google account.
