FAQ

What is power distribution control system?

A Power Distribution Control System (PDCS) is a system used to supervise and control power generation and distribution, including equipment like generators, switchgear, transformers, UPS, and DC systems. It typically operates on a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) platform and ensures efficient management and communication with other control systems.

What is the difference between power transmission and distribution system?

Transmission lines carry electricity at high voltages over long distances to substations, while distribution lines deliver electricity at lower voltages from substations to consumers.

What does a circuit breaker do?

A circuit breaker is an electrical switch designed to safeguard a circuit from damage due to overcurrent, overload, or short circuits. Its primary function is to stop the flow of current when protective relays detect a fault.

Can a circuit breaker go bad?

Yes, a circuit breaker can go bad due to various reasons. Common causes of failure include improper resetting, short circuits, or an overloaded circuit. Identifying a faulty breaker early can save you money, as repairs or replacements are often less costly when addressed promptly.

Can a circuit breaker go bad without tripping?

Yes, circuit breakers can fail without tripping, which is harder to detect and more dangerous than a complete failure.

How do you know if your circuit breaker is bad?

If your circuit breaker is hot to the touch, won’t reset, smells like burning, has been through a power surge, is old, or frequently experiences overloads, it could be faulty. In these cases, it’s best to turn off the power and contact a professional electrician for inspection and repair to prevent further safety risks.

What is a time relay?

A time relay is a device that controls the timing of electrical events, opening or closing contacts after a predetermined time delay.

What is the difference between a timer relay and a relay?

The primary difference between a standard relay and a timer relay is that a standard relay operates immediately upon receiving an electrical signal, whereas a timer relay introduces a delay before activating or deactivating its contacts.

What is a counting relay?

A counting relay is designed to count the number of events or pulses in a circuit, activating its output after a specified count has been reached.

How does a meter counter work?

A meter counter works by tallying the number of electrical pulses it receives, often used to measure quantities like flow rate or production counts.

How does a liquid level relay work?

A liquid level relay monitors the liquid level in a container, activating or deactivating a pump or alarm when the liquid reaches a certain threshold.

What is a level relay for conductive liquids?

A level relay for conductive liquids detects the level of conductive liquids, using the conductivity to complete a circuit and trigger actions like activating a pump or alarm.

How to test a solid state relay?

To test a solid-state relay (SSR), begin with a visual inspection to check for any physical damage or loose connections. Next, verify that the input side of the SSR receives the correct control voltage. Use a multimeter to measure the output side, ensuring it responds appropriately when the control input is applied. Finally, connect the SSR to its intended load and confirm it operates as expected under normal conditions.

How does a solid state relay work?

A solid-state relay operates by using semiconductor components to switch electrical circuits on or off without moving parts, providing faster and more reliable operation compared to electromechanical relays.​

What is the difference between a normal relay and a solid state relay?

The main difference between a standard relay and a solid-state relay lies in their construction and operation: standard relays use electromagnetic coils and moving parts to open or close contacts, while solid-state relays rely on semiconductor components to perform the switching function, offering advantages like faster response times and longer lifespan.
