Following are the advantages of Live Tank over dead Tank :

a) The Primary conductor is short than (in live tank CT) than the Dead tank CT which gives better Rigidity and gives high short circuit current withstanding capability and reliability.

b) Primary winding is uniformly distributed around Core, Hence CT is truly low reactance type, which has inherent better transient performance.

c) Due to shorter length and the tank being live the major insulation is not over the high current carrying primary, which is the main source of heat (as in the case of Dead tank type design.) the insulation does not get heated up while dissipating the heat generated. This facilitates much superior thermal stability of insulation and longer life.

What is live tank?

Electrical equipments (circuit breakers, current transformers etc.) can be categorized, based on their construction, in to two broad types 1. Live tank type 2. Dead tank type As the name suggests, a Live tank equipment's operating system (interruptor chamber in case of CB and tank in case of CT/PT) are live parts during operating and are placed at a height governed by the statutory norms of the country of use. Whereas in case of Dead tank equipments, the operating system is placed in a chamber which is ground during service and hence no statutory norms regarding height of chamber are applicable.


What is the difference between dead tank type and live tank type current transformer?

The enclosure that houses winding in other words the tank is at line potential while in the other case it is at earth potential. it is the same in case of circuit breakers too. From NK Sharath Kumar cell 93412 55090 res fax 080 22290151,l/l 080 22233669,sharathkumar@vsnl.net With live tank circuit breakers, the enclosure that houses the contacts is energized, ie. "live". Dead tank circuit breaker's contact enclosures are not energized and are connected to the ground grid. Live tank breakers are usually less expensive but you have to have separate current transformers.

Did the Tank Man Tiananmen Square get run over by a tank?

They did not run him over. After stepping in front of the tank, jumping on top and talking to the crew, he jumped off and blocked them again. At this point, two people in blue clothes took him into the crowd. Some people say this was the Chinese secret police and that he was executed. Others say he is still alive. No one knows for sure as there is no body, live or dead.
