Pre-test For Power System Protection Seminar

June 23-24, 2016

OPEN-BOOK (if any source is available)
Name: _________________________________
Instructions: Please answer the following items that follow. It is the intention of this pre-test to evaluate
any stock knowledge regarding Power System Protection. You have 1hr for this test.
1. True or False. Instrument transformers are used to isolate and transform down the primary system
quantities into useable values.
2. True or False. Current transformer secondary circuit can be open circuited when there is current
flowing in the primary winding.
3. True or False. When a current transformer secondary circuit is over-burdened, it will make the
connected relays operate faster.
4. True or False. Mho relays that are used in transmission lines are inherently directional.
5. True or False. A well-defined protection zone is determined by the location of the current
transformers.
6. True or False. Protection zones cannot overlap.
7. True or False. Device 27 is under-voltage relay.
8. True or False. The difference in time between downstream and the upstream protection curves is
called the coordinating time interval.
9. True or False. During a phase A-ground fault, the Phase A voltage will be zero at the fault location.
10. True or False. Zero sequence relays are relays that are designed to detect ground faults.
11. Supply the necessary device numbers in the generator protection as shown:

12. Supply the necessary device numbers for the transformer protection as shown:

13. Coordinate the upstream overcurrent relay to the downstream overcurrent relay.
