Classification of Clove sizes as planting material to the bulb yield of Garli...Open Access Research Paper
Garlic is one of the highly valued crops in the Philippines. However, low production yield is the main constraint, specifically in the native varieties that could not satisfy the demand. Among the limiting factors are the use of unsuitable clove size as planting materials. The results revealed that clove sizes significantly influenced the growth of garlic. Large clove size and extra-large clove size obtained average plant vigor with ratings of 5.83 and 6.33, respectively. Significant differences were also found in both fresh and dry bulb weights, with the largest clove size yielding the heaviest weights at 19.36g and 16.67g, respectively. Moreover, large and extra-large clove sizes produced the highest number of cloves per bulb with an average of 19.87 and 19.33 respectively. However, no significant differences were observed in yield per plant and yield per hectare. Consequently, large clove sizes employed as planting material increased the vigor, bulb weights, and the number of cloves with no significant effect on the yield. The study showed that planting large clove sizes (2.0-2.50g) is more promising as planting materials of native varieties like Ilocos white.

What’s Infrastructure ?!
» Infrastructure is outdoor service, analysis, or application aims to safety, reliability and
service continuity .
» Infrastructure is a huge project on a big area consists of different types of buildings.
» Infrastructure Package include:
o Outdoor networks (Water, Sewage, Storm, Irrigation, MV, LV, Street lighting, ELV,
Chilled water, Gas, Electric substations Bridges, Service Tunnels).
7. Introduction
Definitions
» Customer :
It is any entity that purchases electrical power from a power utility. It is the owner of the
building/facility supplied by SEC's power system. It is the owner of the supply request
submitted to SEC to get electrical power.
» Customer Interface Point:
It is the point at which a customer's load is connected to the SEC's power system. This
shall normally be taken as the load side of the customer metering installation.
» Unit:
It is intended for the building's unit. Each unit should be used by one consumer. Each
building can contain a single unit or multiple units. Each unit should be supplied by one
KWH Meter.
8. Introduction
Definitions
» Low Voltage (LV):
It is a class of nominal system voltages of 1000 Volts or less.
» Medium Voltage (MV):
- IEC 60038 lists nominal voltages above 1 kV and not exceeding 35 kV.
- Acc. to EGY CODE up to 66 KV
» Voltage Drop (VD) :
It is the difference in voltage between one point in a power system and another, typically
between the supply substation bus and the extremities of a network. This is generally
expressed as a percentage of the nominal voltage.
» Firm Capacity “Loading Factor”
Firm Capacity of any elements in LV Distribution Network is 80% of that element's rating.
9. Introduction
Definitions
» Nominal Voltage:
It is the voltage value, by which a system is designated and to which certain operating
characteristics of the system are related.
» Service Voltage:
It is the voltage value at the Customer's interface. This is generally expressed as nominal
voltage with plus and minus percentage variations.
Nominal Voltage VS Service Voltage
10. » Types Of Connections:
o Radial Connection
o Ring Connection
» Loop system is better than radial system for three reasons:
o Technical wise: loop system has higher Reliability
o Financial: Loop system has less overall no. of cables but more cables than
radial system for one unit
o Financial: loop system has higher cable cross section area but less derating
factors (grouping and depth factors) and less installation costs. In radial
systems the no. of cables is higher so the grouping factor will reduce the
ampacity (Ampere Capacity) causing rise in the cables' cross section area
which leads to more depth in the ground and more installation cost).

20. Steps of Design
Principles of Design (Design Criteria)
Equipment Characteristics (Rated & Firm Capacity) - Substation
» In Egypt, Substations used in major projects are 1 & 1.5 MVA to maintain the
system stability.
» The substation with 300 KVA rating can be used in light load density area and
also for remote dedicated customers with light loads.
21. Steps of Design
Principles of Design (Design Criteria)
Voltage Drop
» The simplified formula for voltage drop calculation is:
Voltage Drop =
𝒎𝑽 𝒙 𝑰𝒃 𝒙 𝑳
𝟏𝟎𝟎𝟎
Where:
» mV: is the tabulated value of voltage drop divided by 1000 to convert to volts.
» Ib: the design current
» L: the length of cable in meters
22. Steps of Design
Principles of Design (Design Criteria)
Factors affecting Voltage Drop
» Factors affecting voltage drop:
o Neutral current produces a voltage drop which has to be added to the phase
conductor voltage drop (unbalance loading).
o The resistance value of cable core varies with temperature. In a distributor
supplying a number of customers the current is not a constant value
throughout the conductor and the temperature of the cable core will change
along the length of the conductor.

26. MV Network Design
» Configuration of Feeders:
» Distribution of electric power is done by distribution networks. There are two network
configurations:
o Radial System.
o Loop System or Ring System.
Feeders configuration according to SEC’s standards are Single Loop, Tee Loop, and
Multiple Feeder Loop.
The most- preferred configuration is loop system.
» The load of loop (MVA) doesn’t exceed 8:10 MVA for 22 KVA
» The load of loop (MVA) doesn’t exceed 5:6 MVA for 11 KVA
Steps of Design
Design of Feeder – Configuration & MVA
27. MV Network Design
» Feeder / Physical Route:
Distribution substations to be linked to form a feeder shall be selected in such a way that
they intend to supply a group of lots in the same vicinity .
Try to minimize road crossings and avoid to lay the cable(s) in back and forth way.
Dedicated feeder shall be used for hospitals and other important loads.
» Length of Feeder:
The actual length of feeder(s) depends up on the load , cable size and consideration of the
voltage drop.
In case of underground system the length of the feeder should not exceed 7.5 Km for 22
kV up to normal open point and total load of loop shall not exceed the normal rating of
the cable.

» Steps for direct buried cable laying:
How to lay power cable, single core direct buried method.
After taking trench keep clean the trench for the following steps:
o Make a sand bed or fine riddled soil bed as per the measurements given in the
drawing.
o Lay the cable in the middle of the trench.
o Provide sand bed on top of the cable.
o Provide bricks for top of the cable(8 or 11 bricks for each 1m of cable along the route
of cable).
o Backfill the excavated soil leaving 300 mm from the ground level.
o Lay the Cable warning tape and again back-fill the remaining portion of the trench up
to the ground level.
Direct Buried ( Discussion)
40. » Separate Transformers and Low Voltage Distribution Boards also are available as well
as Ring Main Unit. These are to be used in indoor substations. As indoor substations
usually cover large spot loads, the combinations of transformers and Low Voltage
Distribution Board may differ from those of package unit substations, but the ratings
are similar.
