Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which component is used to interrupt the flow of current in a transmission line during a fault?
  • Step 1: Understand that a transmission line carries electrical current.
  • Step 2: Know that sometimes there can be faults, like short circuits, that can cause problems.
  • Step 3: Learn that to protect the electrical system from damage during these faults, we need a way to stop the current flow.
  • Step 4: Identify that a circuit breaker is a device specifically designed to interrupt the flow of current.
  • Step 5: Conclude that circuit breakers are used in transmission lines to stop current during faults.
