Earth Switch


Earthing switches are used for earthing and short-circuiting disconnected sections of substation or plant. They are designed for no-load switching and are able to disconnect low charging currents. The charging current is due to overlap of conductor during transmission. The term over lap means that during transmission some times it is necessary to cross one line over the other. For example suppose one transmission is from A to B and other from C to D. During transmission AB will overlapped CD line. Suppose we have to perform maintenance operation on AB line, so we have to close the breaker first than the isolator. Although breaker and isolator are opened voltage (of curse less than the supply voltage, but still dangerous ) will still in this line due to this overlap. The voltage induced due to flux linkage of CD on AB. When it will get a close path current will flow and this is harmful for the work man. So we use earth switch to ground this charging current. Charging current may be due to high voltage also.

NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram

The NE566 Function Generator is a Voltage-Controlled Oscillator of exceptional linearity with buf fered square wave and triangle wave outputs. The frequency of oscillation is determined by an external resistor and capacitor and the voltage applied to the control terminal. The Oscillator CAN be programmed over a ten-to-one frequency range by proper selection of an external resistance and modulated over a ten-to-one range by the control voltage, with exceptional linearity.  FMAX = 1 MHz     WIDE 1000:1 Continuous Sweep Possible  NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram Pdf Datasheet  Sourced by : Circuitsstream

Transceiver Homebrew QRP SSB 80M Band

Radio communication transceiver is a radio transmitter at the same time the plane doubles as a radio receiver used for communication purposes. It consists of the transmitter and the receiver are assembled in an integrated way. In mulamula generation, the transmitter or receiver or transmitter and receiver sections are assembled separately and is part of a stand sendirisendiri and can work well sendirisendiri Currently employed both parts are integrated in turn. Aircraft simple transmitter consists of an oscillator generating radio vibration and this vibration after vibration boarded with our voice, in a technique called dimodulir radio, then by the antenna is converted into radio waves and transmitted. As we know that the sound waves we can not reach long distances, although its power is quite large, while the radio waves with a relatively small force can reach a distance of thousands of kilometers. In order for our voice can reach a far distance, then our voice superimposed on radio w...
