Answer / ravi
Duty Cycle:-
In telecommunications and electronics, the duty
cycle is the fraction of time that a system is in
an "active" state. In particular, it is used in the
following contexts:
Duty cycle is the proportion of time during which a
component, device, or system is operated.[1] Suppose a disk
drive operates for 1 second, and is shut off for 99
seconds, then is run for 1 second again, and so on. The
drive runs for one out of 100 seconds, or 1/100 of the
time, and its duty cycle is therefore 1/100, or 1 percent.
Protection Class is for what?????????Fire,A/C's.....

Answer / er. vasim
Duty Cycle:- It is the classification based on time
duration for which a motor will be loaded
According to IsS 4722, following classes are assigned
S1-Continous
S2-Short time duty
S3- Intermitent periodic duty
S4- Intermitent periodic duty with starting
S5- Intermitent periodic duty with starting and electric
breaking
S6- Continous duty intermitent periodic loading
S7- Continous duty with starting and electric breaking
S8- continous duty with periodic speed change
IP Protection:
It stands for Ingress protection, According to IS 4691 IP
is classified as:
In IP their are two numerals, ie:IP56
1st numeral: protection against ingress of solid particles
or human body parts,etc
2nd numeral: protection against penetration of liquid
for 1st numeral
IP 1: protection against solid of 50 mm dia or more
2: protection agianst solid of 12.5 mm dia or more
3: 2.5 mm dia or more
4: 1-2.5mm dia
5 and 6: protection against dust particle
for 2nd numeral
1: protection against vertical fall of liquid
2:protection against fall of liquid at an angle of 15 degree
3: 60 degree
4: 180 degree (ie: heavy rain fall)
5 and 6:protection provided against liquid jet (very heavy
rush of liquid)
7 & 8:protection provided against total immersion in liquied

Answer / g.e.t.
Duty Cycle - The duty cycle of a machine refers to how long
it can keep operating before it needs a rest. If you're
referring to motors, then there are 8 duty cycles S1 to S8
(IEC Standard) depepnding on the duration of operation,
nature of operation (continuous or intermittent) and
ambient temperature.
Protection Class - It is generally specified in Ingress
Protection or "IP" standards. It tells us about how the
inside of a motor is protected from water and dust. "IP55"
is the most commonly used industrial standard cuz it
provides protection against dust particles and water sprays
from all directions.

He is asking about protection class like IP 65 etc.,
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 0 Yes | 0 No |
why can't we increase the voltage by increasing the field voltage in order to get higher voltage.so that we can eliminate step up transformer
when we r using single phase load and we have power cable of 3.5core with .5 of neutral and neutral is suppose to the returen path of the phase how much current will flow in the neutral.reply.
what is the difference between earthing and grounding of electric circuits
As all us know that the capacitor panel is connected to improve the power factor when it is PF is low. whether we can connect the capacitor panel on D.G. side(? If it is yes means why?
can you give main difference between ELCB And RCCB?
