Consider the oneline diagram of a simple power system shown in Figure 9.20. System data in per-unit on a 100-MVA base are given as follows:
The neutral of each generator is grounded through a current-limiting reactor of 0.08333 per unit on a 100-MVA base. All transformer neutrals are solidly grounded. The generators are operating no-load at their rated voltages and rated frequency with their ENIFs in phase.
