MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 2)
The line currents in amperes in phases a, b and c respectively are 500 +j150, 100 – j600 and – 300 + j600 referred to the same reference vector with phase sequence of abc. Find the symmetrical component of currents.
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
