Circuit Breaker is a protection device which can intrupt
the fault current, CB has high fault level with-stand
capacity (kA). Relays are also used in protection circuit
but relays cannot with-stand high fault levels. Relays are
generally used as sensing element to open the circuit
breakers.

What is the power factor of an alternator at no load?
A 100 kVA , 400 v/250 kv testing transformer has 8% leakage reactance and resistance on 100 KVA base . A cable has to be tested at 500 kv using the above transformer as a resonant transformer at 50 hz . if the charging current of the cable at 500 kv is 0.4 A find the series inductance required . Assume 2% resistance for the inductor to be used and the connecting leads . Neglect dielectric loss of hte cable . what will be the input voltage to the transformer ?
