Answer / srij21
Apart from the above correct answer,chattering may happen
aslo due to the loose supply wire given to the contactor
coil and also on the coils magnetic effect.

Answer / reshi
Chattering will occur when there is no perfect contact
within the contactor, when chattering occurs the two
contacts may get weld together.This may cause a danger when
it is required to open the circuit or required to stop the
motor from the remote option.Chattering may also occur if
the contactor is undersized w.r.t load current.

Answer / korra
Can be either one of these;
1) Low voltage condition.
2) Improper armature alignment.
3) Broken shading coils.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 0 No |
chattering occurs due to many conditions:
1. due to loose contact
2. dust contents
3. new product will not get contact very quickly but after some periodic operation it will be rectified.
4. under coil rating e.t.c
so major is no 4 & 2 this shall be taken care by manufacturer

Answer / kyle
Chattering us usually due to a loose neutral.
Swap out all mechanical contactors with mercury contactors, and be done with it.

Answer / bhanu dudhat
i agree with above answer and
also manufcture can add
sheded pole ring when it
design bcoz ac current flow
positive ok but naturle side
pick up not possible so and
thats reasen they add sedded
pole ring for continios hold
contactor.

Explain what is rated speed?
say a transformer is designed for 33/11kv step down with ratio 0.33 for load 1 mva. if am giving 11kv as a input that same transformer what will happen to its o/p voltage. and whether it can be operated for 500kva

This is reqd for a 1MW Solar power plant..We have 2DC outputs from the solar panels Connected to 2INVERTOR panels.. Output from invertor is 3ph,280v,500kva,50hz.These are connected to individual ACB.This has to be stepped up to 11KV ,1250KVA SYSTEM.Now can I use (1) one more ACBTO GIVE A COMBINED OUTPUT OF 1000KVA,280V & STEP UP THE OUTPUT BY USING a single two winding 3 ph transformer 11kv/1250kva. or (2)use the two outputs and connect to one three winding transformer of above rating..Pls suggestwith details.
