Question 1

An isolated alternator has transient reactance equal of 0.1pu on a 50MVA base. It is connected to a high voltage infinite bus through a step up transformer of reactance 0.15pu on 50MVA base. The fault level (in MVA) at the bus will be

Question 2

Consider the following figure shown below.

It shows electric power input Pe to a lossless synchronous motor as a function of torque angle The load is suddenly increased from Po to Ps and the motor oscillates around sbetween oand m.
Consider the following statements derived from the figure regarding the relationship between the motor speed ω and its synchronous speed ωs at different point in the oscillating cycle.
A) At point 1, ω= ωs
B) At point 2, while oscillating from 1 towards 3, ω<ωs
C) At point 3, ω>ωs
D) At point 2, while oscillating from 3 towards 1, ω>ωs
Which of the above statements is/are correct?

Question 3

The synchronous generator is delivering 1.0 pu of power to an infinite bus. Infinite bus voltage is 1.1 pu. Generator is connected to infinite bus through a lossless transmission line. A circuit breaker is connected near to generator terminal and the critical clearing time of circuit breaker is 0.34 sec. if another identical synchronous generator is connected in parallel to the exciting generator and each generator is scheduled to supply 0.5 per unit of power, then the critical clearing time (in sec) of the circuit breaker will –

Question 4

A 500 MW, 21 k V, 50 Hz , 3 – phase 2 pole synchronous generator having unity power factor has a moment of inertia of 20× 103 kg – m2. calculate inertia constant in MJ/MVA –

Question 5

A relay at rating 8 A, 2.2 sec IDMT and having a relay setting of 130% TMS = 0.6. It is connected to a supply circuit through a CT ratio 400/5 ratio. If the fault current is 5000 A, the plug setting multiplier of the relay is

Question 6

What is the percentage (%) of the alternator winding is protected if The neutral of 10 MVA, 11 kV alternator is earthed through a resistance of 5 ohms. The fault ready is set to operate at 0.75 A. The current transformers have a ratio of 1000/5 is given?
