Answer / santoshvarma
You can find the faulted location with the help of multimeter.
Measure the capacitance at both the ends,between faulted
phase with respect to earth.
For one end if it is C1 and for other end it is C2. And
total length of cable is L and Capacitance is C.
Then by using the below formula, you can find the faulted
location
LC=L1c1+L2c2

transverse nature of waves is utilised to find the location of fault.when a high dc voltage is superimposed on a signal it becomes a wave. now this wave is given a velocity of 67.5meters/microseconds for 11kv cable and 80 meters/microseconds for 33 kv cables. at the open end the voltage is doubled and the wave is reflected .the time taken by this wave to reach the source is noted and the distance is calculated.

What is the maximum allowed kwa through 2.5mm cable. Electric company installed 2 electric meter at my premises . Two jumper wires of 2.5 mm are used to connect . 2 single phase meters with allowable load 6 and 3 kwa. These jumper wires are taken from a 3 phase electric meter. Meters are in open Sun. What max load these wires can take.
