This research aims to analyze ozone production using the Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) method with a rod–spiral electrode configuration varied at electrode gaps of 1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2.0 mm. The study was conducted at the High Voltage and Electrical Measurement Laboratory, Faculty of Engineering, Sriwijaya University. The research method includes literature review, the design and fabric…
The electrical discharge process known as Initial Breakdown (IB) is the initial trigger for a cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning flash. This phenomenon arises from the intensification of the electric field by a positive charge pocket located below the main negative charge center within a cumulonimbus cloud. This study aims to observe the presence of IB pulse trains that initiate the first return st…
Electricity demand continues to increase in line with population growth and technological developments. On the other hand, the limited availability of fossil fuels and their negative impact on the environment have prompted the need to utilize renewable energy. One solution that can be implemented is a hybrid power generation system that combines solar power plants (SPP) and wind power plants (W…
Electricity is a necessity in all areas of need nowadays. The large use of several types of electronics makes the quality of electricity poor, therefore observing the quality of electricity needs to be done. However, the limitations of the tool make the observation of the quality of electricity hampered. This research aims to create a prototype that is able to observe the quality of electricity…
Every year, more and more electrical energy is required. To replace the use of non-renewable energy (fossil fuels), alternative energy is needed. Utilization of renewable energy, such as water resources that can be used to produce electricity, is one of the strategies to replace the function of fossil energy. Micro Hydro Power Plant (PLTMH) is a type of renewable energy that has the capacity to…
Vegetable oil is needed as an alternative insulating oil to replace mineral oil, because mineral oil can not be renewed and is not environmentally friendly. For this reason, research was carried out by testing the breakdown voltage in a mixture of the two types of vegetable oil in the hope of increasing the breakdown voltage. The test samples used in this study were sunflower oil and canola oil…
Electricity will become increasingly important in people's lives over time. This is because almost all human activities rely on electrical energy, especially in the current modern era where technology is involved in every aspect of life. Therefore, PT PLN (Persero) strives to meet Indonesia's electricity needs through various means, one of which is through electricity distribution. In the distr…
The population and economic development in Indonesia have led to an increased demand for electricity. This can have an impact on the distribution of power from the power plants to the electricity consumers, as the transmission distances are often long. One common issue that occurs during power distribution is voltage drop and power losses. PT. PLN (Persero) has specific standards and specificat…
Accidents can occur due to several factors, one of which is the human factor. One of the means of devices that plays a big role in safety when driving is braking. In addition to the need for safety in the form of braking, mileage is also a problem in the operation of electric vehicles due to the low capacity of the battery installed in the vehicle. Generally, braking is done mechanically, but t…
