In a power network, 400 kV is recorded at a 415 kV bus. A 50 MVAR, 415 kV shunt reactor is connected to the bus. What is the reactive power absorbed by the shunt reactor?
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
When different types of consumers are charged at different uniform per unit rates, it is said to be Flat Rate Tariff. In this type, the consumers are grouped into different classes. Each class is charged at different uniform rate.
The neutral point of a generator is usually earthed to facilitate protection of the stator winding and associated system. Earthing also prevents damaging transient overvoltages in the event of an arcing earth fault or ferro resonance. For HV generators, impedance is usually inserted in the stator earthing connection to limit the magnitude of earth fault current.
The relation between electric intensity E, voltage applied V and the distance d between the plates of a parallel plate condenser is given by: V = E*L E = V/L
