MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 2)
A 1000 kVA ONAN cooled transformer has a load of 500 kVA throughout the day except for a period of 4 hours. What is the permissible overload for a duration of four hours. Assume the permissible load kVA as a fraction of rated kVA is 1.24.
The capacity of reactor = 50 MVAr when it is operated at 415 kV. Impedance of reactor = V2/MVAr = (415*415)2/50 = 3444.5 Ω For 400 kV, Reactive power observed = (400*400)/3444.5 = 46.45 MVAR
Or
VAr capacity of capacitor or reactor is proportional to V²
