a. total connected load / maximum demand
b. maximum demand / total connected load
c. maximum demand + total connected load

30. Question on Skin effect and Proximity effects.
Skin effect reduces the effective cross-section of
the conductor and thus increases its effective
resistance.
Proximity Effect: The alternating flux in a
conductor is caused by the current of the other
nearby conductor. This flux produces a circulating
current or eddy current in the conductor which
results in an apparent increase in the resistance of
the wire.
31. Question on Seebeck / Peltier Effect.
✓ The Seebeck effect is when
electricity is created between
a thermocouple when the
ends are subjected to a
temperature difference
between them.

✓ The Peltier effect occurs

when a temperature
difference is created between
the junctions by applying a
voltage difference across the
terminals.
