Why we have use 3 & 1/2 core cable use for general electrical supply arrangement



Why we have use 3 & 1/2 core cable use for general electrical supply arrangement..

Answer / mansingh

1/2 CORE USED FOR NEUTRAL CONNECTION. IF ELECTRICAL LOAD IS
BALANCED THEN NO LOAD WILL BE ON NEUTRAL, IF LOAD IS
UNBALANCED THEN UNBALANCED LOAD WILL GOES THROUGH
NEUTRAL.SO FIRST WE SEE THAT LOAD IS BALANCED IN PHASES
THEN IN THIS CONDITION NO CURRENT WILL FLOW THROUGH
NEUTRAL,SO NOT REQUIRED FULL CORE.

Is This Answer Correct ?    5 Yes 0 No

We have a 12MW power plant & we inject 5-6MW power to Orissa GRID. For this we have a 33KV/11KV switch yard having 12.5MVA power transformer. Some times we draw power during emergency. It is observed that during Export or Import for load less than 500Kw the power factor is decreasing to 0.3 . This is happening only during export or import. During island condition TG power factor OK.Our capacitor bank is provided with our Power plant auxilliary load. Please suggest how I can we improve our power factor during low load (GRID).
