in transmission line 11kv is step up or step down? why?..

Answer / saravanan

*In transmission line 11kv is genrally step up,
because due to step up voltage (for example 220 kv,400 kv)
line current automatically goes down. Transmission line
travel is in KILO METER. To avoid the HEAT LOSS(I2R).
* If current is high, current carrying conductor
also change its size. so, cost also chaned in x'mission
system. So, we always used in high voltage low current
transmission system

Answer / kather basha

First of all we have to know that 11KV which is generated
from Generating station end will be stepup ed to 230KV 0r
more inorder to avoid losses, this case in only in
Transmission line.

But when going to distribution end S/S 11KV & 33KV S/S are
made stepdown inorder to use it as commercial load for
industries & household etc as 230V, 420V.

Please help me regarding my one concern. - During earth pit testing we noticed that the Clean earth pit and dirty earth pit showing continuity (Resistance value - 5ohm) . I want to know that if both earth pit have separate location and there is not internal looping between PIT then why such continuity is showing on it . Because of this issue the field side all earthing point showing short. In PLC panel we are providing two types of earthing cable which is coming from separate earth pit (Clean and Dirty earth pit) because of earth PIT showing short our PLC is not complying spec . please help regarding this issues.
