A practical formula for determining the thickness of insulation between low voltage and high voltage windings is__________________?

Correct answer: D. 5 + 0.9 kV mm

  • A. 1 + 0.2 kVmm
  • B. 2 + 0.5 kVmm
  • C. 4 + 0.7 kV mm
  • D. 5 + 0.9 kV mm

Explanation

The commonly used empirical expression for insulation thickness between LV and HV windings is approximately 5 + 0.9kV mm, with voltage expressed in kilovolts. It accounts for the increased insulation requirement as winding voltage rises.
