Explain clearly the sources of short circuit power in a power system and the nature of such power. ‘A three-phase transmission line operating at 33kV and having a resistance and reactance of 5Q and 20Q respectively is connected to a generating station busbar through a ISMVA step-up transformer which has a reactance of 0.06 per unit (p.v). Two generators, one IOMVA having 0.1pu reactance and another SMVA having 0.075pu reactance are connected to the bus bar. Calculate the short circuit MVA and fault MVA when fault occurs (a) at the high voltage terminals of the transformer, and (b) at the load end of the transmission line Enumerate the positions in which current limiting reactors may be connected. Also explain the objective of sectionalizing the bus bars in a large power section. Considera balanced three-phase delta load connected across an unbalanced three phase supply system, as shown in Fig.1. The currents in lines a, and b are given. 1-104 A Fig.1 Balanced delta-connected load on an unbalanced three-phase power supply. Calculate the currents in the delta-connected load and also the symmetrical components of line and delta currents. From these calculations, establish the phase shifis of positive and negative sequence components in delta windings and line currents. Consider a sub-transmission system as shown in Fig. 2. A 13.8-KV generator G1 voltage is stepped up to 138 kV. At the consumer end the voltage is stepped down to 13.8kV, and generator Gz operates in synchronism with the supply system. Bus B has a 10,000-hp motor load. A line-to-ground fault occurs at bus B. It is required to calculate the fault current distribution throughout the system and also the fault voltages. The resistance of the system components is ignored in the calculations. The col co2 C03 col co2 +03 545impedance data for the system components are shown in Table 1. Assume suitable data wherever necessary. Fig.2 A single line diagram of power system Tablel.
