I. Multiple Choice
1. A three – phase, 3 – wire transmission line has an impedance per wire of 8 +24i
ohms. The receiving end is composed of 3 – phase induction motor drawing
3,600 kilowatt at 0.80 lagging and a resistive load drawing 132 A. If the receiving
end voltage is 13.8 kilovolt, calculate:
a.) Sending end voltage
b.) Percent regulation
c.) Line efficiency
2. A 60 Hz, 3 – phase long type transmission line is 175 miles long. It has a total
series impedance of 35 + j140 and shunt admittance of j930 microsiemens. It
delivers 40 MW at 220 kV, with 90 % power factor lagging. Determine the
sending end voltage.
3. A 3 – phase, 4 wire system supplies loads which are unequally distributed in the
three phase lines. An analysis of the circuit shows that the positive and the
negative sequence components of the current in line A are as follows: Ia1 =
48.02cis (-87.6o) A; Ia2 = 163.21cis40.45oA; In = 156.6cis112.7o A. Determine the line
current at line A.
4. A 60 Hz turbo generator is rated 500 MVA, 22 kV. It is wye connected and solidly
grounded and is operating at rated voltage at no load. It is disconnected from the
rest of the system. Its reactances are X1 = X2 = 0.15 and X0 = 0.05 per unit. Find the
ratio of the subtransient current for a symmetrical three – phase fault.
