Question

Please describe in your own words how electricity works and how conductors, insulators and semiconductors play their role in the deliverance of electricity.

Answer 1

Solution: Working of electricity A current (electricity is a steady flow of Charge mainly election. When electrons for moves from one place to anothes in a Circuite they creates a steady flow of charge ie. Electricity. Mainly Electricity is the rate of change of not flow of charge through a conducting material'ie. Te dar When potential drop across a conducting material is applied, it generates an. electric field that leads to the movement of charge carrders hence Current flows. Io houses, We get electricity from distribution lines that carries electricity and act as a Voltage source for our needs. Blectie ty are generated in Generating Station then U bransmitted and diãributed into Vasilous feeders , Stations and Substations etc. rating station, then they are

: Role of Conductors Inswates and Semiconductor in Transmission and Distribution of Electrocity : let stast step by step; first discuss the Dole of Conductors 4 Role of Conductors: Conductors are the heart and soul of Distribution line. You can't imagine a flow of Current without conductors. Transmission lines are made up of Conductors. Not only transmission lines also transformers at various stages need conductors'. Electoraty can be continously flow through conductors in less delay time. This conductes provide various parameters needed in deliverence of Electricity such as Resistance Inductance, 'capacitance etc. Rofe of Insulators: Insulators also play very important role in Transmission of Electricity they are used to provide insulation between cable and mounting poles so that current can't flow into the polex They also provide mechanical strength at each tower or pote to the cable & wires- Insulators are used to support the weight of Conductors Insulation is a big parameter

Semiconducters: ca Semiconductors are used at various point in Transmission and Distribution lines Semiconductor is used in high Voltage cable to remove the stress points in the electric field, that are developed by Conductors 16 They are used in stations and Substation for contros flow of electricity in lines... o lower semiconductors are used because they can handt large voltage and large current fedel semiconductors are also used to change and concert frequency of specific polot.
