  • (B)  grading according to capacitance of cables per km length
  • (C)  cables using single dielectric in different concentrations

The electrostatic stress in underground cables is_________?
  • (A)  same at the conductor and the sheath
  • (B)  minimum at the conductor and maximum at the sheath
  • (C)  maximum at the conductor and minimum at the sheath
  • (D)  zero at the conductor as well as on the sheath
  • (E)  none of the above
Underground cables are laid at sufficient depth___________?
  • (A)  to minimise temperature stresses
  • (B)  to avoid being unearthed easily due to removal of soil
  • (C)  to minimize the effect of shocks and vibrations due to gassing vehicles, etc
