what is the capacitance of a single conductor
Answer Posted / keshav
The resistance of a single (ideal) conductor is zero, its
inductance is also zero and its capacitance IS ALSO ZERO?
NO. Its capacitance is infinite. Understand it like this:
cut the conductor in two pieces and treat them as plates of
a parallel plate capacitor with air as dielectric. Now the
capacitance of this 'capacitor' is: eA/d; e is 'epsilon
zero', A is cross section of the conductor and d is distance
between the two pieces. Now bring the two pieces closer and
closer till they meet to form a single conductor. At this
point: capacitance = eA/d = eA/0 = INFINITY.
HENCE PROVED.

I want to put this query to SENIOR & EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS. 1)I want to know about the control circuit diagrams for control panels. I found it difficult to understand. Is there ant booklet through which we can learn the circuit diagrams? 2)I want to learn about conduiting, laying cables, preparing cable schedules and various techniques which is the part of building infrastucture(construction field). I don't have any experience in this area. I have experience in control panels only. that's why i am not getting any opening in building infrastucture (construction field).Can I get the job in this field as Trainee Engineer? How to enter this field? I need job in PUNE
