The method in which earthing is done through a transformer is referred as
The method in which earthing is done through a transformer is referred as:
- Effective earthing
- Non-effective earthing
- Peterson coil earthing
- Flick method
Correct answer: 2. Non-effective earthing
The term non-effective earthing refers to the earthing which is done through
The term non-effective earthing refers to the earthing which is done through:
- Resistance
- Reactance
- Transformer
- All of these
Correct answer: 4. All of these
MCQ#6
Argument: Resistance earthing can’t be used for single phase loads.
Solution: Households always employ solid earthing.
- Argument and solution are not connected in the present context
- Argument leads to the solution
- The argument is wrong, the solution is correct
- Both solution and argument are wrong
Correct answer: 2. Argument leads to a solution
Explanation: The resistance earthing can’t be used for single phase loads due to which the solid earthing method is used by households.
