Question

Two single-core power cables have total conductor resistance of 0.7 Ω and 0.5 Ω, respectively, and their insulation resistances (between core and sheath) are 600 MΩ and 900 MΩ, respectively. When the two cables are joined in series, the ratio of insulation resistance to conductor resistance is ______ × 106.

Show Answer

Answer :

300


Rconductor=0.7+0.5=1.2Ω

Rinsulation= 600×900/600+900 = 360MΩ

Rconductor/Rinsulation=300×106

Hence, the correct answer is 300.
