Q1. What is an EMC issues?
Ans. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of electrical equipment and
systems to function acceptably in their electromagnetic environment.
Q2. What is a smart sensor?
Ans. A smart sensor is a device that takes input from the physical environment and
uses built-in compute resources to perform predefined functions upon
detection of specific input and then process data before passing it on.
Q3. State the advantages of PMUs.
Ans. Load shedding Increase the Increase power Ability to
and other load reliability of the quality by precise calculate
control power grid by analysis impedances of
techniques. detecting faults loads.
early.

Q4. What do you mean by power system conditioner?

Ans. A power conditioner is a device intended to improve the quality of the power
that is delivered to electrical load equipment.
Q5. What are the issues of grid connected renewable?
Ans. 1. Voltage 2. Quality issues 3. Protection 4. Harmonics
Imbalance are harmonics issues,
and voltage
and frequency
fluctuations
Q6. What is islanding condition?
Ans. Islanding is the condition in which a distributed generator (DG) continues to
power a location even though electrical grid power is no longer present.
Q7. What is the overall efficiency of PSHP plant?
Ans. Pumped Storage Hydro Power plant ---60%
Q8. What type of reaction will take place at the anode of a battery?
Ans. oxidation
At the anode, oxidation takes place only when used as a battery. At the
anode, oxidation takes place in a battery and in an electrolysis operation
Q9. How can one get the GIS of a location?
Ans.
Steps
1. Click the Find tool to open the Find dialog box and click
the Locations tab.
2. Identify the locator you want to use. By default, the ArcGIS Online
locator will be used. ...
3. Enter the place-name or address that you want to find.
4. Click the Find button to search for and work with the results.

Q10. What is the range of charging time in SMES?

Ans. 10ms -8 sec
Q11. Why the effective efficiency of SMES is low?
Ans. Effective efficiency decreases due to requirement of cooling system.

Q12. What is a phase shifting transformer?

Ans. phase-shifting transformers provide active power flow control. By enforcing or
blocking loads, they not only improve the stability and flexibility of grids but
also help grid operators get the most out of existing hardware.

Q13. Why is the real time pricing high sometimes?

Ans. The real-time pricing (RTP) scheme is an ideal method to adjust the power
balance between supply and demand in smart grid systems.
Q14. Under which conditions, the efficiency of distribution transformers is high?
Ans. The value of transformer efficiency will be maximum when the copper losses
will be equal to iron losses in the transformer.
Q15. What is the role of automation in modern era of energy system?
Ans. Automation is the use of electronics and computer-controlled devices to
assume control of processes.
Q16. What is added to the conventional grid to make it smart?
Ans. Energy measures including smart meters, smart appliances, renewable energy
resources, and energy efficient resources.
Q17. Lists the various methods of communication available in smart grid.
Ans. Smart grid use two different network types for communication one is HAN
and WAN. HAN is used to connect the home appliances with the smart meter.
