This system has to be protected from abnormalities which is the task of protection system. 1.2 Why do we need Protection? Electrical power system operates at various voltage levels from 415 V to 400 kV or even more. Electrical apparatus used may be enclosed (e.g. motors) or placed in open (e.g. transmission lines).

Introduction Emerging infectious diseases have been increasing incidence and are a key threat to wildlife and human health. Influenza is one of the most common diseases‚ causing millions of severe illnesses and huge number of deaths per years. Recent concerns were focused on H5N1 avian influenza virus that was first isolated in a domestic goose in China in 1997 due to its high case of death rate (Lucchetti‚ Roy & Martchvae‚ 2008). Influenza viruses are single-stranded RNA viruses of which 3 types

Corona lectric power can be transmitted or dis tributed either by means of underground cables or by overhead lines. The underground* cables are rarely used for power transmission due to two main reasons. Firstly‚ power is generally transmitted over long distances to load centres. Obviously‚ the installation costs for underground transmission will be very heavy. Secondly‚ electric power has to be transmitted at high voltages for economic reasons. It is very difficult to provide proper insulation† to the

simple in operation which is HVDC transmission. The HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) technology is used to transmit electricity over long distances by overhead transmission lines or submarine cables. It is also used to interconnect separate power systems. A further development in this technology is HVDC light where HVDC light converters are used for faster and efficient conversion of power. HVDC Light is a fundamentally new power transmission technology developed recently. It

So‚ even if there are unavoidable circumstances such as another generator’s power outage or transmission line outage‚ we still made profit through the load. Thus‚ strategic location could also serve as an edge. This is also a game of efficiency. Obviously‚ big-time generators who can operate
