Substation Equipment: Shunt Reactors. Shunt Reactors. Shunt reactors are used in an extra high-voltage substation to neutralize inductive reactance in long EHV transmission lines. The photo shows an installation of both an older version and a newer version of the reactor. Figure 1. Shunt reactors in a substation.
The most common reason for the statute of limitations being extended is because the plaintiff was a minor. The statute of limitations for a minor in most states does not begin until they turn 18 years old. Therefore, in a state with a two-year deadline, a minor who has a slip and fall accident would have until their 20th birthday to file a lawsuit.
While a statute of limitations may declare that a personal injury lawsuit must be filed within a certain amount of time after an accident or injury, that time period usually does not begin to run until the moment when the person filing suit knew (or should reasonably have known) that they had suffered harm, and the nature of that harm.
