- A 39.6 kV, 6 MVA star connected alternator has a reactance of 1.5 ohm per phase and negligible resistance. Merz-Price protection scheme is used which operates when the out of balance current exceeds 35% of the full load current. The neutral of the generator is grounded through a resistance of 16 ohms.

Show that the effects of the alternator reactance can be ignored.arrow_forwardFull solutions for the question with explanationarrow_forwardIf the load is connected to the generator thgrough an inductive line and the voltage at the load side is the same as the voltage at the terminals of the generator, which of the following must be true? O A. The reactive power is flowing from the generator to the load and from load to the generator at the same time. O B. The load is disconnected, and no power is delivered to the load. O C. The load has a poor power factor and it's absorbing too much reactive power. O D. None of the other choices are correct O E. The generator is unable to produce reactive power; therefore, the reactive power is flowing from the load to the generator.arrow_forward
