what is the difference between HV and LV Breakers?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / shri..
1) HV is used for High Voltage lines & LV is used for Low
voltage line.
2) HV breakers have high voltage & low current carry
capacity & LV breakers have low voltage & high current
carru capacity.
3) HV breakers size will be bigger than LV breakers.
4) HV breakers poles gap will be higher than LV.

* hv (11kv, 3.3kv)breakers mostly used for sf6 or vaccum because breaker inside of conduct points are very near.
* incase use the normal ACB at HT side, induction voltage came so affect the isolation and total system.

Hv- High voltage Breaker which is gas(SF6 gas) insulated
breaker. While close the HV circuit by using breaker, High
spark appear and Very dangerous. so we r using SF6 breaker
We cant rack out, We shoud lock out the Earth switchs in
busbar side and line side. also close the panels, lock out
the panel.
LV breaker - Air circuit Breaker - we can rack out and Tag
out while perfoming the works in L1,L2,L3 lines

Actually I have a doubt on neutral and earth.we use Ac power without taking neutral by connecting to earth,but at that time does it affects on efficiency of any electrical components or no? If yes how?
1. If we apply dc supply to the primary winding of transformer it will be burnt out. similarly dc supply is given to field winding of syn. motor and armature winding of dc motor, they are safe. (Remember both windings inductive nature) what is the reason behind that?
