MrMcJay:
I just hope Nairaland has a very good legal team backing it because it is going to be defending lots of defamation suits against it pretty soon. The day I gave up on the mods was when they put the gory pictures of the corpses of those girls from Igbinedion Uni on frontpage just because of the traffic it would generate. It caused so much uproar on that thread that day. Very sad I must say.

Seun really needs to get expert training for his mods so as not to put him in serious criminal and legal liability in the nearest future.

Do you remember that picture of 2face and her wife years ago?
She looks more like a Tiv or Igala lady...na joke o!

" Mr. Dimaku,thanks 4 observing the coldness. Now Prince Austine Maurice Theophilus,your statement is the most careless and most uninformed statement I've read in a long time. No insults meant,my brother. Do you know the meaning of war? What are you fighting for? Who is afflicting you? Did you experience the civil war? If No,have you ever gone to the Museum to watch pictures or watch video clips of what happened? Have you tried asking an elder to tell you stories? Listen brother,Biafran propagandists only lied to us about how Biafran soldiers destroyed Nigerian Soldiers,it was all lies. Not more than 800 Nigerian soldiers died in that war. How can you fight soldiers with sticks,Awka made and cutlasses? My father was a captain in the Biafran Army,I have the pictures and videos. Don't ever mention war again cox you are yet to know that 78% of Igbo investments are outside the south East. In the event of war,we will die like rats,the Nigerian Army can't be matched! The Igbo ppl will automatically become poor and in frustration we will start fighting among ourselves -Anambra against,Imo,abia against Ebonyi,etc. Get informed my friend!"

The social media twisting and misinterpreting one's statement for selfish result.

it is Chelsea o!

Zinicc:
If you had not answered like an axs-licker that you are I would have tried to borrow you some sense...
Your father told you the story of his cowardness, because my own father told me the story of his gallantery.....

My father was one of the renound Engineers that brought to life ťhe famous Ógbu-na-igwe..
And áfťer ther war he worked for PRODA all his life...

So you need to go ask you father again to tell you the truth of how he was busy runing for his dear life instead of standing his gróund while my father with other Galllant Biafran Rebels where anihilating all the advances by the enemy.

If you father wasn't a chicken like you painted him here, why did the war last for 3yrs..it should have lasted for 2hours...Monkey son of a jittery chicken leg man called father.

Hasn't it occured to you yet that your father might have lied to you......boastful statement like "I was always the first during my school days."
when he was always leading from behind.


Older men declare war, but the youths fight and die - WAR.

I'm good bro!! Its been a while, how are you sir?

been around though. we bless God here sir.

Goodboiy:
Hi peeps.. I haven't create any new thread recently due to some reasons best known To me, Although I still Remain your loyal boy "Goodboiyy" . Below are some Igbo and Yoruba word used in Urhobo language.

1. Biko : Biko is an Igbo word for "Please" And it means same in Urhobo, in Urhobo you usually hear word like "Oghene' biko keme' Igho" Meaning "God please Give me money".

2. Olori : Olori is a Yoruba Word for Head .. in Urhobo it means the same thing..

3. Orgor' : Orgor' is an Igbo word for 'Inlaw'. It means the same thing in Urhobo.. for example I might say "Oniovo Orgor we' nkor " meaning 'brother how is Your Inlaw ".

4. Omo' : Omo'r is a Yoruba word for Child, It has same meaning in Urhobo.. I can make statement like " e' Freemanan Omo'r meh' … meaning "Freemanan is my Son"

5. Obara' : Obara is an Igbo word for blood.. It means Same In Urhobo.. Why The Igbo woman will shout "Obara Jesus" and Urhobo Woman will say "Oba'rah' Re' Jesu"

6. Jesu' : Jesu' is an Yoruba word for Jesus . its still the same in Urhobo

7. Ew'a : Ew'a is another Yoruba word for Beans and its thesame with Urhobo. Ew'a is pronounced in Urhobo exactly thesame with That of Yoruba

8. OBA : OBA is a Yoruba word for king , We still use it in Urhobo.. If we Want to Call God.. we say Oba' risi' meaning " King Of The Word"

9. Akpere : Is a Yoruba word for basket, it means the same Thing in Urhobo

10. Ego : Its an Igbo word for Money.. in Urhobo we say Igho .. I believe the word belongs to Igboid.

11. ejime : Its an Igbo word for Twins, Its spelt and Pronounced The same in Urhobo

12. Osusu : Is a Yoruba Word for Monthly savings. Its the same in Urhobo

Pls don't derail the thread. THANKS

Olori in Yoruba means Queen.

nice thread.

Here is a boy who has refused to eat apple due to teaching from the church today.

The fact that he could relate with what learnt to becoming a better and "uncursed" christian is commendable.

I can't remember number of times I have consumed this same apple despite number of times I have heard this same teaching.

So, how do you convince him to eat this apple?

A British Man creates an application that filters out mentions of Kardashians.

Here are some comments.....badt people.

" Way to go. Best way to avoid chronic dumbness"

" He should be knighted, walahi!"


The application is yet to be on the appstore.

Will you love to download when officially launched?

The adjective, "primary" she used gave her away. Secondary Victim or simply Victim would have done the job.

Guys rendered her supposed punchline useless.

Hmmm, and the in-between line reading is so superb.


Someone said, "I think she means 'why can't you guys yab each other instead of flexing you muscles and making us sonsless, husbandless and brotherless.'"

Everyone is a victim of war.

1. Difference between Voltage and Current.

Answer: Voltage is the Pressure, Current is the Load


2. What is an Injection Substation?

Answer: An injection substation is a station where a higher voltage is stepped down to a lower voltage, especially for distribution in a densely populated area. In Nigeria, the most common injection substations are 15MVA or 7.5MVA 33/11kv injection substations.

Also, a substation is an indoor or outdoor location in which there are located transformers, switchgear, busbar systems, and protection equipment.


3. What is the main difference between Substation and Injection Substation?

Answer: Substation is associated with Transmission (it does not supply consumers), while Injection Substation is associated with Distribution (it supplies consumers). – Injecting consumers with electricity. Power Station is associated with Generation.


4. Mention and explain briefly some equipment found in the Substation.

Answer:
a. Power Transformer: To stepping down 33KV to 11KV for distribution and to be further stepped down by, and it is mostly 15MVA and 7.5MVA capacities.

b. Bus Bar: Busbar is used when two or more transformers are to be connected together provided the transformers operate at the same voltage, frequency for synchronization. Busbar can be termed as electrical common point for all incoming and outgoing lines/feeders. It receives supply from incoming circuits and sends supply to outgoing circuits.

c. Lightning/Surge Arrestor: This is the first electrical device which is usually seen from the incoming overhead line and also near transformer's terminal phase to the ground. It works as shunt resistors to divert the lightning and high voltage surges to earth and protect other equipment from H.V surges.

d. Isolators: It is also called disconnecting switch or “on no-load” switch. In substation/switchyard, it is located before the circuit breaker.

e. Earthing switch: It discharges trapped charges within the circuit to earth for safety after with the circuit breaker and the isolator have been opened. They are mounted on the frame of isolators.

f. Current Transformer (CT): An instrument transformer for stepping down the current for measurement, protection and control. It is always connected in series to the circuit.

g. Voltage (potential) transformer (PT): An instrument transformer is for stepping down the voltage for measurement, protection and control. Its location is at the feeder side of the circuit breaker.

h. Circuit Breaker (C.B): Circuit breaker is an electromechanical appliance for switching during normal and abnormal operating conditions, and also interrupting over current and earth fault. Also called “on-load” switch.

i. Marshalling Kiosk: Also known as marshalling box can be used in either indoor or outdoor applications, but mostly in outdoor switchyard. Marshalling kiosk provide convenient points for the various control, protection and instrumentation wires which connect to and from different areas located within the substation, including power and instrument transformers.


5. Define Switchyard, and explain its types

Answer: As the name implies – switching substation, it is a place/yard where electrical switching occurs. We have Indoor switchyard/Control Room and Outdoor switchyard/Control Room.


6. Why is Transformer rated in VA?

Answer: [/b]There are 2 losses in transformer. One is copper loss which depends on current and the other is iron loss which depends on voltage.

[b]7. What is the relationship between Real Power and Apparent Power?

Answer: Apparent Power (VA) = Real Power (W)/Power Factor
Example: The real load a 15MVA transformer can comfortably carry is 15 x power factor = 15MVA x 0.8 = 12MW

8. Mention 2 faults you know.

Answer: Over-current, and Earth Fault.


9. Difference between Ohmic and non-Ohmic conductors

Answer: In an Ohmic conductor the current flowing is proportional to the voltage applied. In a non-Ohmic conductor there is no linear relationship.

Conductors that obey Ohm’s Law are called Ohmic conductors while those that do not obey Ohm’s Law are called non Ohmic conductors.


10. Why is AC not used instead of DC in batteries?

Answer: When we connect a battery with AC Supply, then it will charge during positive half cycle and discharge during negative half cycle, because the Positive (+ve) half cycle cancel the negative (-Ve) half cycle, so the average voltage or current in a complete cycle is Zero. So there is no chance to store AC in the Batteries.


11. State the difference between Alternator and Generator

Answer: In an alternator, electricity is produced when a magnetic field spins inside the stator winding. On the other hand, the armature winding of wire in a generator spins inside a fixed magnetic field to generate electricity.


12. Full meaning of SMS,ICT, WwW,GSM,ISP

Answer:
SMS – Short Message Service
ICT - Information and Communications Technology (ies)
WWW – World Wide Web
GSM - Global System for Mobile Communications
ISP – Internet Service Provider


13. How can we improve power factor?

Answer:
- Minimize operation of idling or lightly-loaded motors.
- Avoid operation of equipment above its rated voltage.
- Replace standard motors as they burn out with energy-efficient motors. Power factor is also significantly affected by variations in load. A motor must be operated near its rated capacity to get the highest power factor.
- Install capacitors in your AC circuit.

14. What is the full meaning of SCADA?

Answer: Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition

15. Explain tripping unit.

Answer: The tripping unit consists of a charger which converts 220 volts AC to 110 volts DC, and a set of wet cell batteries connected in series. The charger charges the battery with 110 DC volts and the batteries in turn supply the transformer panels with 110 DC volts. This is done to ensure continuous supply of power to the relays when there is an outage.

16. Explain Ring Main Unit (RMU) and Feeder Pillar.

Answer: Ring Main Unit is Distribution Feeder Load Switches used in maintaining supply network in a Ring System (mesh) or (loop) in looping of 2 or more transformers in Ring system. It is used in underground system .It is mainly used in 11KV grid (HV), while Feeder Pillars are low voltage (LV) distribution boards with fuses incorporated. They help to improve voltage distribution by distributing load evenly and in a tidy manner. They are mostly used at the 0.415KV grid. Also incorporated in the feeder pillar are an ammeter and voltmeter.


17. Give reasons why electrical installation be earthed? State two types of earthing you know

Answer: It is used to provide a low resistance earthing for doing the following tasks:

- discharge currents from surge arrestors, overhead shielding and earthing switches
- for equipment body earthing
- for safe touch potential and step potential in substation
- for providing path for the neutral to ground currents for the earth fault protection

Two types of earthing are Protective (Equipment) Earthing and Neutral Point Earthing.




18. Why are cables on the Primary side always smaller than the ones on the Secondary side?

Answer: The cable at the primary side of the xformer is always smaller in width than the cable on the secondary side becuase the current at the secondary side is always far higher than the primary's side as a resulting of stepping down. Primary side(Low Current and High Voltage), Secondary side (High Current and Low Voltage)


19. List protection relays in transformer.

Answer: Differential relay, Over-current relay, Bulcholz relay, Earth fault relay.


20. List tests carried on transformer you know.

Answer: Capacity test, Ratio test, Insulation resistance test, pressure test, oil test, Excitation test, Earth resistance test, physical inspection test as well.

Wanna quote u but....

M.sc? Nobody cares about that for now.

Most people that go for M.sc are those who couldn't secure a job, thus for not wasting time.

I know people with M.sc today with less than 60k per month job and I know some with Msc with more than 60K per month.

I have been to interviews where people without Msc get employed over Msc holders.

Companies need assets, someone without experience, but with Msc competing with someone with experience and without Msc might not stand a chance.



my brother, experience is the key.
Msc can come along the way as u take up professional courses as well.

God is ur strength.

this said it all

haryomikun:
I swear to God, u re a fvcking dope nigga ... Everything you listed out I knew those were the problems in the mixtape... Covert problems tho. Others don't always notice. Anyways lemme reply you on all your points
1. I dont have patience for slow songs as a matter of fact. That's y I increased the tempo to match that of my woman my everything. The BPM of my wande coal my favorite is 105.00 and I had to increase it a bit to match that of my woman my everything wich is 112.00.
Its actually a problem I actually love bro . That's y in d mixtape you only see three 'slow but dope' songs(as I call them) then the next one is averagely fast( Expensive shit,,, Thank God you didn't notice when I was increasing the tempo in that one ) Next tym wen increasing tempo I promise I'll be more covert.

2. I know and immediately I heard d mismatch in the sounds, I rectified the mistake. If you listen further you'll see there was mismatch about 7 seconds into the song. Thats y I told you I don't have patience for slow songs.

3. Well, that was because I had problems with my mixtape size before. My first mixtape was 70mb large and a lot of people complained. On the day I created this solo birthday mixtape, that was when I discovered the secret to reducing an audio file to as much as 30mb without reduction in audio quality. The original file actually is 94mb. So the thing is, when I was already at gbese, I just checked the tym and wen I saw 1hr 6 mins I was just like 'oh boy, make the size of this file no large ohh'. That was y I stopped abruptly. Its nt a new style from DJs bro. Lol. M just starting the career sef.

True tho, only one person noticed the increase in tempo in my villa. Apart from that, he didn't notice anything else. However I knew sum1 who listened well would observe the others you listed...

Loool. Actually a guy even told me I even dropped the level of d way he was dancing when I changed to laye from efejoku. I wonder how that was the part you had to shake body lol. Coz the dance hall music started from bobo down to efejoku.

Besides, I don't really get d 3/4 music and 4/4 music stuff you mean. I have an idea of wat u mean tho. Just am not sure and I'd love u 2 expatiate on it...

Happy sunday bro

Lol.

1. You are gonna need to get used to slow music. Train yourself with all genres, and other tribal songs. It helps DJ career.

Sometimes, you might not need to try hard before satisfying your employer. I remember a DJ that had to play Osadebe songs without syncing. He got happily paid.

Many DJ try to impress, and most often fall out of favour with the employer. Endeavour to know what the payer likes and dance around his/her centre of interest. Creativity comes in here. Of every show, you have 1 or more potential customers or none.

And when mixing, increasing BPM of a song is the best choice than slowing down as we all know. Thus endeavour to always make sure BPM of cued incoming track is not higher than the current one.

It is better you sync an incoming song before playing. This would have solved the point where u had to increase while on play.

2. Explaining 3/4 songs and 4/4 songs.
Tracks like aye, dorobucci, woju, almighty father thank you are 3/4 (worror) based on beat counting. It is impossible to smoothly blend with 4/4 tracks like ashimepeyin, jeje, what shall we say unto the Lord (hightlife) without cutting.

3. You are gonna make a very good DJ. Just try don't make your priority. Work harder, explore and learn from whoever. I can observe you are not the proud type.

I like your audio signature on ur mix, but endeavour to use less of effects.

4. I am a music lover, the song that works for me while reading might not work when walking........and there are tracks that trigger me no matter the mood-laye is one of them.

Many tracks today are not even soul edifying.....just junk of words on nice beat and music is served.

5. With what software did u compress your audio files? Format Factory?


Hope u had a great day today?

Dyt:
Bobomi Oko Obirin Trust you good

I am good Mama. I dey where u abandoned me.
Gez u r enjoying ur day.
Oko Obirin kan ni.
