A fully controlled natural commutated 3-phase bridge rectifier is operating with a firing angle α = 30°, The peak to peak voltage ripple expressed as a ratio of the peak output dc voltage at the output of the converter bridge is
Carrier current over the power line provides simultaneous tripping of circuit breakers at both ends of the line in one to three cycles. Thereby high-speed fault clearing is obtained, which improves the power system stability. The auto-reclosing simultaneous reclosing signal is sent thereby simultaneous (1 to 3 cycles) reclosing of the circuit breaker is obtained. For simultaneous faults, carrier-current protection provides easy discrimination.
As per answer key "pilot protection" is true but there is mistake the right answer is "none".
The series electromagnet is energized by a coil known as current coil which is connected in series with the load so that it carry the load current. The flux produced by this magnet is proportional to and in phase with the load current.
Bus Type - Known Parameter - Unknown Parameter Load Bus -P, Q - V, phase angle Generator Bus - P, V (magnitude) - Q, Voltage phase angle Slack Bus Voltage - magnitude and phase angle - P, Q
The methods often employed in practice to improve system stability are: 1. Increasing System Voltage 2. Reduction in Transfer Reactance 3. Using High Speed Circuit Breaker 4. Automatic Reclosing 5. Transient Stability 6. Turbine Fast Valving 7. Application of Braking Resistors 8. Single Pole Switching:
