Answer Posted / rakesh
When an alternating potential difference is applied across
two conductors such that the spacing between the two is
large as comnpared to the spacing between the two , then an
electrostatic stress is set up , which gradually builds up
to make and makes the air around the conductor conducting ,
if he potential difference is increased to the extent that
exceeds the visual critical limit then comlete breakdown of
air takes place , and is accompanied by faint luminous glow
of violet colour , production of ozone gas , and hissing
noise .
DISADVANTAGES : 1. There is a definite los of power .
2. The corona current is non sinusoidal and hence causes
some disturbance to the neigbouring communication lines .
3. The ozone gas produced reacts with the conductor and
corrodes it .
ADVANTAGES : As the air becomes conducting so there is a
virtual increase in diameter of the conductor and henc
decreases the resistance.
2. It acts as a safety valve for neutralizing lightning
surges and overvoltages caused ddue to other transients .

We have a distribution transformer of 750KVA/11kv/440v and an AVR (Servo Stabilizer) of 750KVA on the LT side of distribution transformer. Also we have an ACB of 1200A on the output of distribution transformer (that is on the input of AVR). We want to have an MCCB on the output of AVR. What should be the rating?
we have a lot of model of rectifier but thyristor rectifier is the most rectifier that use in power system. Do you know why this rectifier is used?
