BASICS

DIEELECTRIC
NON AVAIBILITY OF MOBILE ELECTRONS FOR ELECT. CONDUCTION




DIEELECTRIC STRENGTH
POT. GRAD. REQ. TO CAUSE BREAK DOWN INSULATION. DRY AIR-3 KV/mm




FLASH OVER
DISCHARGE WHICH TAKES OVER THE SURFACE OF AN INSULATOR INCASE OF BREAKDOWN. IT IS LUMINIOUS



ELECT. ARC
HIGHLY LUMINIOUS INTENSELY HOT SELF SUSTAINING ELECT. DISCHARGE BETWEEN TWO ELECTRODES USUALLY
STARTS WHEN ELECTRODES CARRYING AN ELECT. CURRENT ARE DRAWN APART.
Electrical Arc                                             Arc Flash




                 Electrical Discharge Through Dielectric
Electrical Flash Over
Note The Line is LIVE   11 KV




Watch the Daring Man !! What is going to happen?
Just after few seconds later of previous snap




             Bang !!! A Flash Over
Failure of Dielectric strength of Air.
STEP POTENTIAL
P.d. Across one step of human being i.e aprox. 0.8 meter on the ground

TOUCH POTENTIAL
P.d across touch point of object and ground.
EARTHING
Earth is largest conductor which has a constant potential in spite of losing or gaining any charge
Covers the problem relating to conduction of electricity as a low impedance return path of the fault current
Earth wires all along the electrical wiring in the home
Harmful Effect of Electricity on Human Body


1.BURN
2. SHOCK




               SC- dead cells is being shed and replaced continiously
BURN EVALUATION BURN DEGREE & % SURFACE AREA Effected.
First degree- like
Entrance Wound: High resistance of skin transforms
electrical energy into heat, which produces burns
around the entrance point (dark spot in center of
wound). This man was lucky, the current narrowly
missed his spinal cord.




 Exit Wound: Current flows through the body from
 the entrance point, until finally exiting where the
 body is closest to the ground. This foot suffered
 massive internal injuries, which weren't readily
 visible, and had to be amputated a few days later.
Arc or Flash Burns
  This man was near a power box
  when an electrical explosion
  occurred. Though he did not touch
  the box, electricity arced through
  the air and entered his body. The
  current was drawn to his armpits
  because perspiration is very
  conductive




Thermal Contact Burns
Current exited this man at his
knees, catching his clothing
on fire and burning his upper
leg.
Internal Injuries
This worker was shocked by a tool he
was holding. The entrance wound and
thermal burns from the overheated
tool are apparent




   Same hand a few days later, when
   massive subcutaneous tissue damage
   had caused severe swelling (swelling
   usually peaks 24-72 hours after electrical
   shock). To relieve pressure which would
   have damaged nerves and blood vessels,
   the skin on the arm was cut open
This worker fell and grabbed a powerline
to catch himself. The resulting electric
shock mummified his first two fingers,
which had to be removed. The acute
angle of the wrist was caused by burning
of the tendons, which contracted,
drawing the hand with them.
