Pengubah yang rosak boleh dibaiki tanpa menganggu pengubah yang lain.
- Sistem ini juga dapat menampung beban pengguna yang banyak walaupun saiz
kabelnya kecil.
Keburukan:
- Kawasan pengubah yang rosak tidak akan mendapat bekalan elektrik
Sistem jejari

- Sistem yang termurah

Keburukan:
- Apabila salah satu daripada pengubah rosak, pengubah-pengubah lain tidak dapat
berfungsi
- Saiz kabel yang digunakan lebih besar dibanding dengan penggunaan sistem gelang
242 Pemutus litar arus baki (RCCB) terpelantik apabila suis lampu dihidupkan’. Sebagai
seorang pendawai, nyatakan sebab pemutus litar tersebut terpelantik dan tindakan anda
untuk membaiki kerosakan ini.
RCCB terpelantik apabila suis lampu dihidupkan adalah disebabkan:

a. pengalir hidup tersentuh dengan pengalir bumi atau,
b. pengalir neutral tersentuh dengan pengalir bumi
Tindakan:
a. Asingkan bekalan.
b. Kenalpasti kedudukan lampu-lampu yang dikawal oleh suis tersebut dan buat
pemeriksaan di setiap lampu tersebut.
c. Sekiranya terdapat sentuhan, asingkan sentuhan tersebut dan buat apa-apa cara
supaya sentuhan itu tidak berulang.
d. Laksanakan pengujian sebelum bekalan disambung semula.

244 Terangkan secara ringkas operasi kendalian bagi Penghidup talian terus (direct on-line
starter).
a. Apabila Punat Tekan Hidup ditekan, arus akan melalui Gelung Tanpa Voltan C1.
b. Gelung Tanpa Voltan C1 akan menghasilkan elektromegnet seterusnya menarik
Sesentuh Sedia Buka 1 dan Sesentuh Sedia Buka 2.
c. Sesentuh Sedia Buka 1 bertindak sebagai Sesentuh Pemegang dalam litar kawalan
d. Pada ketika ini motor akan menerima arus melalui Litar Utama dan menggerakkan

motor dalam keadaan mara dan lampu pandu 1 akan menyala.
e. Apabila Punat Tekan Henti ditekan, Gelong Tanpa Voltan akan hilang
keelektromagnetannya dan semua sesentuh akan kembali pada kedudukan asal.
Motor akan terhenti.
f. Sekiranya berlaku lebihan beban, Geganti Beban Lampau akan terpelantik dan
memutuskan litar, Lampu Pandu 2 menyala dan motor akan berhenti
245 Sebuah motor yang melebihi 0.5 hp atau 0.37KW mestilah mengadakan kawalan
keselamatan. Nyatakan tiga (3) ciri-ciri perlindungan bagi kawalan tersebut.
a. Menghidup dan memberhenti motor- (start / stop button)

b. Memutuskanbekalanbilaberlakubebanlampau-(Overload relay)
c. Mengelak motor daripada hidup kembali secara automatic setelah menerima
bekalan jika berlakunya kegagalan bekalan-(No volt coil)
246 Nyatakan lima (5) langkah utama jika anda berdepan dengan mangsa renjatan elektrik.
1. Putuskan punca bekalan dengan mematikan suis utama dan sekirany apunca bekalan
terlalu jauh untuk dimatikan, gunakan penebat seperti kayu untuk memisahkan
mangsa dari punca bekalan.
2. Letakan mangsa renjatan di tempat yang mempunyai peredaran udara yang baik dan
selamat.
3. Longgarkan pakaian seperti talileher, butang baju serta tanggalkan benda-benda yang
boleh menyekat proses pemulihan seperti gigi palsu (jikaada).
4. Berikan bantuan kecemasan awal seperti CPR kepada mangsa.
5. seterusnya minta bantuan dan buat panggilan kecemasan untuk mangsa dibawa ke
hospital untuk rawatan lanjut.
247 Nyatakan saiz MCB dan saiz kabel yang sesuai digunakan bagi litar akhir kecil di bawah.
a. Litar Pencahayaan;
MCB ialah 6A dan saiz kabel ialah 1.5mm.
b. Litar kuasa (13A Soket Alr Keluar dalam litar gelang.
MCB – 32A dan saiz 2.5mm.
248 Pengalir adalah bahagian kabel yang fungsinya untuk mengalirkan arus elektrik. Nyatakan
TIGA (3) perbezaan di antara pengalir kuprum dan aluminium.
Pengalir aluminium
a. Saiz kabel bermula 10mm keatas
b. Digunakan untuk talian atas
c. mudah patah jika dibentuk
Pengalir kuprum
a. saiz kabel bermula 1mm ke atas

b. Digunakan selain dari talian atas
c. mudah dibentuk
249 Apakah tujuan dilakukan ujian penebatan?
Tujuan ujian penebatan dilakukan adalah untuk memastikan tidak ada sentuhan langsung

diantara pengalir hidup dengan neutral mahupun dengan pengalir bumi dan sebaliknya. Ia
juga disebut sebagai litar pintas tanpa beban diantara pengalir hidup dan pengalir neutral.
250 Berikan DUA kebaikan dan DUA kelemahan fius boleh dawai semula.
Kebaikan
