    Contactor Coil Voltage Correction

    I was given a coil that picks at 65% of rated voltage which is 115 V. If I want to perform calculation on 120 V basis, how would I correct the pick up voltage. Thanks Yigo

    Use of Breakers with ICR not listed for the system voltage

    All, I am trying to use Eaton breakers type HFD in a 125 VDC system ungrounded. The breakers have an Interrupting Capacity Rating listed for 250 VDC but not for 125 VDC. I would like to know potential risks for the application. Thanks Yigo.

    TCC and Short Circuit Reference Voltages

    All, Breaker TCC and damage curves are plotted for one line diagram section that has a transformer 480V Delta/208V Wye-Grounded, a breaker at the transformer primary and cables. The plot time axis current is referenced to 208V,and short circuit current for 3 phase fault and phase to ground have...

    thermal overload relay current setting

    All, Please explain to me the impact of the thermal overload relay current setting range. I have a relay with the following current settings: 85%, 100%, 115%. If at 100% setting, the relay trip at t100, what would be the trip time at 85% by just adjusting the current dial. Likewise, what would...

    Lighting Panel schedule

    All, I have a 208/120V, 3Ph, 4W lighting panel. I want to list a 1Ph 208V, 1000W connected between phases 1 and 2. I think the right way is to list 1000w for each phase 1 and 2. Please advise if this is right. Thanks for your input. Yigo

    GSU Transformer Clearances

    Hi, We are replacing GSU transformers. The new ones are taller than existing. I am wondering if anybody is aware of issues related to GSU tansformers clearances to the HV line. The new transformers contain also more gallons of oil. I am wondering if anybody is aware of issues related to the oil...

    Positive and Negative Feeders in DC Traction Power

    Hi Everybody, During traction power substations surveys, I noticed that there are more cables between the DC positive bus and the third rail than cables between negative DC bus and the track.Both cables positive and negative are identical. Can anybody help me understand? Thanks. Yigo
