Voltage
drop is the main consideration while designing a_________.
Feeder
Distributor
Service mains
All
the above
Distributor
Distributor
:
1.
A distributor is a conductor from which tapping are taken for supply to the
consumer.
2.
Current through distributor is not constant because tapping are taken at
various places along its length.
3.
While designing a distributor, voltage drop is main consideration since the
statutory limit of voltage variation ± 6% of rated value at consumer terminal.
Feeder
: A feeder is a conductor which connects the sub-station to the area where
power is to be distributed. Generally no tapping are taken from the feeder so
that current in it remains the same throughout the set of operation.
1.
The main consideration in the design of a feeder is the current carrying
capacity.
Service
Mains : A service mains is the generally a small cable which connects the
distributor to the consumer terminals.
Hence,
the correct option is (B).
