Break Down Voltage(BDV)

BDV is Breakdown voltage value of insulating oil of the transformer. It refers to the dielectric strength of transformer oil. Transformer oil act as an insulating medium and also as a coolant that dissipates heat of the transformer.

Now after a long-term operation transformer oil loses its properties slightly and a dip in dielectric strength is observed due to impurities or moisture in the oil.

We have BDV tester kits to test the Breakdown Voltage of the transformer oil.

BDV test kit

Oil collected from the main tank is filled in the chamber and is placed inside the tester kit. The two electrodes you see are seperated by 2.5mm. Now high voltage at a rate of 2KV/s is applied between the electrodes and observes the voltage applied when sparks occur between the electrodes. The test is repeated minimum three times and the values are recorded.

It gives the value of voltage at which the oil loses its dielectric property.

A BDV rating around 30KV is considered good. If lower values are recorded do not energize the transformer and the oil is recommended for filtration.

Cable trench specification | Various type of cable trench

  Hello friends, I had told in my previous blogging that the current carrying capacity of different UG cables.Today I will tell you how the UG cable is laying and how the cable trench is done with the specification.   UG cable is very expensive, about 3-4 times expansive and also laying. But due to many reasons we have to do UG Cable. One of them is because of the reason   we have to do UG cable even after being so expensive, is density populated areas where Overhead Network cannot be used. However, the cable should be properly laid because it takes more time to find the fault than the overhead line.           Before selecting for laying UG cable, the current carrying capacity, voltage drop and short circuit current of the cable are very important factors which I had written earlier in blogging. Generally the life of the cable is 40-50 years. But Incorrect handling/laying can result in insulation damage and decreases...

concrete pole specification | how to calculate cement, sand and aggregate quantity in concrete

Today I will tell, how PCC pole concreting is done? Before knowing about our topic, let's take a little knowledge about PCC Polls.full form of pcc pole is Plain  Cement Concrete pole .There are various types of PCC Pole like 8 mtr 8.5 mtr ,9 mtr .but Now I will discuss about only 8.5 mtr pcc pole. As per Guaranteed Technical Perticulars(GTP) Total Length-8.5 mtr Pit depth-1.5 mtr Working load applied 300 mm from top-180 kg Weight of the pole-415 Kg. Top dimension-90mmx145 mm Bottom dimensions-90mm x 300 mm we have to maintain pit length is 1.5 mtr and pole should be inside pit is L/6 where L is length of the pole. Explained : L=8.5 mtr Pit depth=L/6+0.075(Base plate) Pit diameter =20 inch(0.508 mtr) Let's go to our topic now. How to calculate cement, sand and aggregate quantities for ratio 1:2:4 Pit Size For one cmt cement required -6 bag Our pit volume (dia-0.508 mtr where r-0.254, depth-1.5 mtr) Volume -pie*r2*h                =3.14*0.254*0...
