It is a high magnitude pulse in micro seconds discharge.
so many mega volts of supply will discharge in 10 power -6
seconds.

Answer / tarun aggarwal ymca(tarun.agga
Lightning is an atmospheric electrostatic discharge (spark),SO Initially It is DC with an extremely fast rise time which gives it a high frequency AC component at the initial strike. Once the arc is established it contains all frequencies in the RF spectrum which makes it AC.

Answer / k.prakashchandra
It is a discharge between the oppositely charged and hence
can be considered as DC pulse as the 'only AC' appliances
burn out due to even small voltages caused by lightning
strokes and incandescent lamp remains unaffected.

Answer / koti
it is purely pulse with a time period in seconds
by using high voltage engineering methods we can use this
power
Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / sanjay rawat
all of u says that it is a pulse of high magnitude for micro sec
so this pulse is a spike
so we can concidered as ac

For which purpose the temp. rise test of transformer is conducted?
My system is 22kv/3.3kv transformer. client is asking to use NGR, but as we have dedicated Neutral Earthing systems which has a value less than 1 Ohm. So i want solid comparision. Why i should not use NGR as my system is already protected.Can any one help me to get out of this.how should i reply on basis of some great comparision and calculations. Please help
Can earth resistance be measured without connecting the earth electrode? and should earthing connections be disconnected What is the effect of connecting two cables of different sizes in parallel with supply? Thanks in Advance. I am intrested to get in touch with some tecnocrats/engineers,my mail i.d is : hiremathvijay@rediffmail.com
