Distribution

In a radial distribution system, the energy can flow in _____________.

What is the major advantage of radial distribution system?

Which is true?

The distribution transformers are connected to primary feeders, sub feeders, and __________.

Is radial distribution system used in residential area?

It concerns the portion of the power system that provides low-voltage electricity to the end users.

Below are voltage levels in Secondary Distribution lines in the Philippines according to Meralco EXCEPT:

Which is true about Secondary Distribution?

Why does Secondary Distribution require less capital cost than the primary?

In terms of distance, this power system covers less as it only delivers the electricity from distribution transformers to the end users.

It is a complex and highly reliable system designed to provide electricity to consumers with a high degree of redundancy and fault tolerance.

This distribution system features multiple interconnected paths through which power can flow, ensuring that even if one path or component fails, electricity can still be delivered through alternative routes.

These are key components where high-voltage power from the transmission system is stepped down to medium or low voltage for local distribution.

These devices further step down the voltage to levels suitable for consumption by end users.

Circuit breakers, fuses, and relays are used to protect the system from overloads and faults. They isolate faulty sections to prevent widespread outages.

It is a Switching Apparatus that are destroyed during overload conditions.

A type of Grounding in which the circuit is designed to protect individual components of an electrical system.

A Power System Grounding is a special circuit designed to protect the entire distribution system of a residence?

An electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent/overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after protective relays detect a fault.

It is used to protect power systems from overvoltage.

Is a device used to protect electrical circuits in a substation by interrupting the flow of current in the event of a fault or overcurrent.

It is an automatically operated electrical switch that uses air to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit.

It can be used in high voltage applications such a power grids, substations, power lines and transmission and distribution systems for up to 220kV.

Are mostly used in medium voltage applications like for switching and protection of high voltage induction motors, secondary transmission substations, etc.

It is a dielectric gas having superior insulating and arc quenching properties far better than air or oil. It is used for arc quenching in high voltage circuit breakers up to 800 kV in power stations, electrical grids etc.

A distribution network with multiple available power sources which can make close path throughout the network

A type of interconnected system that are directly connected to each other by converting the station to change the voltage level and control the voltage.

A type of interconnected system are connected with the HVDC transmission line. The rectifier is used to convert AC power into DC power and at receiving end. The inverter is used to convert DC power into AC power. The control of voltage is done by power electronics switches and controller.

In this type of network, both AC and DC power is transmitted over long distance. So, this system offers the best possibility for the large interconnected system.

How many are the types of interconnected power system?

A distribution substation and includes the lines, poles, transformers, and other equipment needed to deliver electric power to the customer at the required voltages

It refers to the distribution lines on the high voltage side of the distribution transformer.

Conductor size is bigger and have lesser number of service tapings for electric supply

The voltage levels in primary distribution are usually 33KV, 22KV,

This is also usually in single phase. Because of High voltage present more/large insulation is required.

It is likely to decrease the installed capacity needed

When interconnection causes a larger current to flow on the transmission lines under faulty condition with a consequent increase in capacity of?

Which one of the following does not include in advantages of interconnected power system.

Which one of the following does not include in disadvantages of interconnected power system.

When two systems operate separately, each must maintain a separate reserve capacity. If they are ________, it may be sufficient to have a smaller total reserve for the combine system for the same degree and reliability.

This type of substation can see in power stations, and the main purpose of this kind of substations

It is a crucial part that plays a key role in the operation and efficiency of the transformer.

It is to maintain safe operating temperatures of transformers.

It is the heart of the transmission network in her the voltage increase by 220 kV from substation step down or reduced to 66 kV.

Some transformers has _______, which allow for adjustment of the turns ratio and therefore the output voltage.

What is Sub-transmission Substation?

The step-down substation can change the transmission voltage to a sub-transmission voltage, usually ______?

Sub-transmission is type of substation is connected between to?

One utility may have a 23-kV sub-transmission system supplying _____kV distribution substations.

Another utility right next door may have a ____kV distribution system fed by a 138- kV sub-transmission system.

Least reliable: Faults on the radial sub-transmission circuit can cause interruptions to multiple substations.

More reliable: Faults on one of the radial sub-transmission circuits should not cause interruptions to substations. Double-circuit faults can cause multiple station interruptions.

A ¬________________ is the simplest and least expensive. But radial circuits provide the most unreliable supply; a fault on the sub-transmission circuit can force an interruption of several distribution substations and service to many customers.

______________tend to be designed and operated as are distribution lines, with radial or simple loop arrangements, using wood-pole construction along roads, with reclosers and regulators, often without a shield wire, and with time-overcurrent protection.

_________________ tend to be designed and operated like bulk transmission lines, with loop or mesh arrangements, tower configurations on a private right-of-way, a shield wire or wires for lightning protection, and directional or pilot-wire relaying from two ends. Generators may or may not interface at the subtransmission level (which can affect protection practices).
