MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 3)
Which of the following statements are correct? (i) Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is typically more automated and allows real- time, on-demand interrogations with metering endpoints. (ii) An Automated Meter Reading (AMR) device only communicates from the customer to the energy supplier. (iii) AMR meters only provide kWh information and possible peak kW demand for the month.
Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is an integrated system of smart meters, communications networks, and data management systems that enables two-way communication between utilities and customers. The goal of an AMI is to: Provides utility companies with real-time data about power consumption and allow customers to make informed choices about energy usage based on the price at the time of use.
Type B MCB: Type B devices are generally suitable for domestic applications. They are designed to trip at fault currents of 3 - 5 times rated current.
Type C MCB: Type C devices are the normal choice for commercial and industrial applications These devices are designed to trip at 5 - 10 times rated current
Type D MCB: The Type D devices have more limited applications, normally in industrial use where high inrush currents may be expected. Type D devices are designed to trip at 10 - 20 times.
Here auto transformer change voltage from 600 V to 200 V. Voltage ratio (a) = 600/200 = 3 kVA rating of the auto-transformer = (a/(a - 1))*(kVA rating of auto transformer) = (3/2)*20 = 30 kVA

Frequency response analysis is the technique whereby a sinusoidal test signal is used to measure points on the frequency response of a transfer function or impedance function. Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) testing provides insight into the mechanical and electrical integrity of transformers.
Main Purpose of SFRA Test: Transformer Core displacement Winding displacement for both rotor and transformer Broken or loosen clamp connections Inter turn short circuit Internal short circuit Winding to Core Earth fault Winding Open circuit condition
