Question 1

The system voltage is enhanced during heavy load condition and reduced during light load condition by using

Question 2

In order to improve the power factor of equipment operating at lagging power factor, a capacitor is connected

Question 3

A 3-ϕ, 400 kV transmission line has a surge impedance of Zs = 250 Ω. If the line is compensated with series capacitor of 25%. Then the new surge impedance loading in MW will be:

Question 4

An alternator is supplying a load of 300kW at a p.f. of 0.6 lagging. If the power factor is raised to unity, how many more kilowatts can alternator supply for the same kVA loading ?

Question 5

A shunt capacitor of 200 MVAR is operated with 97% of its rated voltage and at 95% of its rated frequency. The reactive power absorbed by compensating element will be:

Question 6

The power consumption of an industry is 400 KVA, 0.8 p.f. lagging. A synchronous motor is added to raise the p.f. to 0.9 lagging. If power intake of the motor is 100 KW, the p.f. of rotor is:
