Answer / karan
The thump rule is voltage rating +1 example for a 11KV
motor it should be 11+1=12 Mega ohm.
In addition to that the PI is the ratio between 1Mnts and
10 mnts.It should be above 1.5
For examle IR at 1mnts= 10M.ohm,
IR at 10 Mnts= 20 M.Ohm
Then the Polarisation index is 2 which is consdierd
good.When it is below 1.5 you can heat the tranformer or
motor then the value will come up.

Answer / priyan
see sundar
Meggering test is done for any electrical equipments to
find the insulation resistance value.
As per the standards for testing the machines 3 methods are
there
1)spot reading 2)time-resistance testing method 3)step
voltage test
the following is the second mehtod it is in use nowadays
PI=10 min/1 min value
Then the Polarisation index is 2 which is consdierd
good.When it is below 1.5 you can heat the tranformer or
motor then the value will come up.

What is the equipment used to control the generator output?
I have a question, I visit 01 site and face a problem, there is 2.5 ton Air Con working, when air con compressor is running at that time rectifier voltages are increasing upto 290-295 v and rectifier is giving main high alarm (rectifier is APC single phase), before starting compressor rectifier voltages was 230v. when air con is going off rectifier voltages are decreasing smoothly at its actual voltages 230v. Load on Genset phases is this: Red-13.5 amp AC (Air Con load), Yellow-1.7 amp AC (BTS lights etc.) and Blew-4 amp AC (telecom system load), Genset phase to phase and neutral to phase voltages are also ok. These are 10 sites having same system and same rectifier APC brand at every site 02 genset are working but the problem is same at all these 10 sites. What will be the reason behind???
what is the meaning and difference between ELECTRICAL DRAWOUT and MANUAL DRAWOUT?
where we use compound motors in real time and why?
what is mean by amf
What happens instead of using 3 phase, if we give loop of single phase to all three phases ??
what is different between buchhoz relay and pressure relife devices in transformer
What are eddy current and define rms value?
What are the causes of eddy current losses?
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
