Function of electrical transducer is to convert non electrical quantity (such as temperature, pressure, displacement) into electrical signal for further measurement in meters.

Grounding and Earthing both are same. Whenver comes the Revers voltege it is going to Earth. Otherwise it will affect the system.

You can connect the capacitor in Series if the voltage rating of the capacitor is less than the supply voltage. By connecting the capacitors in series, the capacitance will be reduced.

Use of series capacitor:

  • Reduces line voltage drops
  • Limits load-dependent voltage drops
  • Influences load flow in parallel transmission lines
  • Increases transfer capability
  • Reduces transmission angle
  • Increases system stability

Grounding in the sense nuetral groundng in the case of star connected motors are provided in order to maintain same voltage in all the three phases. If certain ground fault appear in any one of the phase the heavy current is made to circulate through star point-neutral grounding-ground(Having much higher resistance)-w/g of the motor-star point, hence the heavy current produced is minimised through heavy reistance.
If we see earthing, it is provided at the outer side of panels used in mny industries so as to pass the noise current or current produced my electromagnetic interference. so that there should be a no shock when we touch the panel.....

To provide fast operation of the relay on an in zone fault, the current
transformer should have a 'Knee Point Voltage' at least twice the setting
voltage of the relay.  The 'Knee Point Voltage' (Vkp) is defined as the
secondary voltage at which an increase of 10% produces an increase in
magnetising current of 50%. It is the secondary voltage above which the CT is
near magnetic saturation

Grounding term mainly used with electronic circuits. The ground potential may be higher than 0.0V ,
but the earthing is used in Electrical . The potential of Earth should be Zero , other wise it may be hazardious for men ,machines & system .

Initially 40w bulb was away from heater so its Resistance would have been low. so the net current drawn would be high, hence all the 3 devices operate good. But in second case, the 40 W bulb's resistance would have gone up due to heater. hence current down. thus 3 devices opertae with reduced current! Feel free to comment about my answer.
