how would you come to know if a transformer is double wound
or auto? note that there is no tag. you are given only a
multimeter.

Answer / n n mohanta
In auto transformer there will be continuity between in
coming supply and out going supply side whereas there is no
continuity between incoming and outgoing incase of double
wound transformer.

EXACTLY AS IN CASE OF AUTOTRANSFORMER SOME PART OF THE
PRIMARY WINDING IS MADE AS SECONDARY WINDING ...THERE IS NO
ELECTRICAL ISOLATION AS IN CASE OF TWO WINDING HERE

Answer / matthew
On an autotransformer there is a physical connection
between the primary and secondary and the voltage variation
is not much so the resistence steps are less. The opposite
is true for double wound transformer.

Answer / ogeerster
WEll in an autotransformer the primary and secondary windings are electrically connected. So if an open circuit takes place across the secondary winding, the primary voltage shows in the secondary winding. (test it for yourself)
While in a double wound transformer, the primary and secondary windings are not electrically connected, so if an open circuit across the secondary winding occurs, the secondary winding will not be affected.
I hope i have helped.

Re: can you give main difference between ELCB 2pole And RCCB 2pole? And how this devices operated?
if there is nutral in phase why we use earthing wire and grounding? even at fault condition the fault current flows to neutral (it is a lower path)

What accessories required to give the motor with given circuits and do you know the ratings of those accessories?
sir i had plane to do some project with the base of hopkinson test in AC supply its possible
what are the functions & ratings of panels mentioned below: 1. Main LT Panel(MLTP) 2. Motor Control Centre(MCC) 3.Feeder pillars 4.Busducts
yesterday i am using my laptop by plugging power supply also battery was working properly after while i unplugged AC power source ,using my battery i played car game (use much power) after that the battery finished the charge and it closed my PC. after that my battery not charge (when unplug automatically PC will turn off)
Why all voltage levels are the multiples of 11KV?
is it possible to flow a current between nutral and earth in a circuit? although nutral and earth having same potential diffrence? i=0/r=0A if any body now any solid reason because i am getting a triping problem in rcbo due to nutral and earth shorting???
What is state space method ? Why its used ? Can it applicable on linear, non-linear, 1st order, higher order, homogeneous, non-homogeneous, open-loop , closed loops , stable & unstable systems ?
