04. What are the different type of work permits? What precaution you take
while doing maintenance in equipments in Hazardous area?
Cold Work, Hot Work, Vehicle Entry & Vessel Entry permit. Interinsic Safe meters
only should be used such megger, vibration meter, temperature meter and other
ordinary meters shall not used unless the Hot Work Permit is obtained.

A meter is used to measuring the electrical circuit and the value of current,
voltage and resistance is called AVO meter.
Bridge Megger is used to measure the lowest value of resistances accurately and
it is used to measure the motor winding resistance and transformer winding
resistance during preventive maintenance. The winding resistance of the three
windings should be equal.

14. What is MICC? Where it is used? What mineral used for this cable?
Mineral Insulated Copper Conductor and it is used for fire alarm systems
and
Lightings systems at Hazardous area without using conduits and
Magnesium oxide is used as mineral.
Lead Covered Cables are used in Oil Fields due to avoid damages of
PVC insulation by hydro-carbon gases and chemical corrosion.
Cable glands are used to protect from mechanical damage, to give earth
continuity and for entering in junction box, MCC etc.
Trace the cable fault through cable fault locator and cable route through cable
route locator
In explosion proof areas double compression glands are used to avoid the
gasses entering in the electrical apparatus.
Cold Compound joint kits, Hot Compound joint kits and Heat
Shrinkable joint kits
20. Explain about Batteries, Voltage and Specific gravity of Cell?
Nickel Cadmium Batteries: - It is used in Refineries for its reliability, long life and
less maintenance. No need to deal with H2So4 dangerous.
Lead Acid Batteries: - It is also used but life is limited, maintenance costs are high
and handling H2So4 is too dangerous for its chemical concentration.
Nickel Cadmium Cell - 1.2 Volts, Sp. Gravity is 1200 in all conditions and Lead
Acid Cell - 2.1 Volts, Sp. Gravity is in Full charge 1280, Half charge 1240 and
Discharge - 1180
21. What will effect if you are connecting the batteries in Series and Parallel?
If the Batteries are connected in Series the voltage will be increase and the
Batteries are connected in Parallel the Current will be increase.
Charging method in which current does not appreciably change against battery
demand. Suitable for applications where a battery needs to be fully recharged in
the short time
24. How do you decide the boost charge current rate for given 100Ampere
-hour rating of battery?
UPS have Converter, Inverter, A V R, Battery Bank, Static switch and Bypass
Switch
The static switch have supply on both end i.e. Converter supply and
A V R supply (Static switch is nothing - the two SCR is connected in opposite
direction)
The inverter is always taking the load, the converter fails to feed supply to the
inverter, it will work with the help of battery bank
If the inverter is fails to take the load, the A V R supply will take the load without
power interruption through the static switch
27. Why the battery room is normally considered for Hazardous area
classification?
Parts of motor are Stator, Rotor, Winding, Shaft, End shields, Fan, Fan Cover,
Terminal Box, Bearings, Bearing housings, Lifting hook and Pulley key
31. How can you find a motor is good with using of Multimeter & Megger?

Transfer the load to other transformer (if provided) or isolate the load
Check the insulation resistance of primary and secondary winding and check
the winding resistance
Check the Terminal tightness
Check the Earth connections of Transformer and measure the earth value
Collect the sample of Transformer Oil and carry out B.D.V. test
39. What are the light fittings used in Gathering Centers & Booster Stations?
Incandescent lamp, Mercury high discharge lamp, Fluorescent lamp and Halogen
lamp fittings are used in Gathering Centers & Booster Stations and it certified by
BASEEFA
In twin tube light set while glowing the lamp, ring will move one by one inside the
florescent tube this is called stroboscopic effect due to two chokes are
connected nearby. To eliminate this effect connect one capacitor in series with
one light circuit
The automatic voltage regulators are usually provided to maintain the generator
voltage reasonably constant in spite of the fluctuating load i.e. to increase the
voltage when the load is high and reduce the voltage when the load comes down
The Tong Tester is called in other words as clip on meter. In this we can measure
the current flowing in the circuit in each phase for any unbalance if is noticed.
Can be used without breaking the circuit.
Primary and Secondary Voltage must be same as check tap changer position
