What is the purpose of specifications?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Explain the purpose of specifications.
Explanation of Solution
Discussion:
In an architect plan, a standard practice to include a set of detailed specification with each set of plans to prevent confusing details in working drawings.
In the electrical specifications, the size, type, and rating of all electrical parts will be listed, which will be useful for an electrical contractor to estimate the cost of a residential wiring.
Conclusion:
Thus, the purpose of specifications is explained.

A3 φ, 10 kVA, 220 V, four-pole, 60 Hz, star-connected synchronous machine has negligible stator winding resistance and a synchronous reactance of 6 ohms per phase at rated terminal voltage. The machine is first operated as a generator in parallel with a 3φ, 220 V, 60 Hz power supply.
(a) Determine the excitation voltage and the power angle when the machine is delivering rated kVA at 0.8 PF lagging.
(b) If the field excitation current is now increased by 20 percent (without changing the prime mover power), find the stator current, power factor, and reactive kVA supplied by the machine.
