There is an installation with two equal triphasic loads of 300 kVA each and a power factor of 0.9 lagging. When connecting a pure reactive element in parallel, the reactive power at the entrance of the installation is 150 kVARS, with a lagging power factor. We can say that: a) A bank of reactors was connected and the fp deteriorated. b) A capacitor bank was connected and the pf deteriorated. c) A bank of reactors was connected and the fp improved. d) A capacitor bank was connected and the pf improved. e) None of the above

A parallel connection of a RL branch with a C branch is connected across a 100V AC mains. At first R = 10 ohms, L = 20mH and frequency of 1000rad / s, the current measured is 2.2361A at 89.44 leading power factor. A) Determine the initial capacitance. B) However, a fault occurs on the capacitor branch making its capacitance 20% lower and a resistance of 5 ohms is detected. If this faulty circuit is rerun but at a frequency of 500 rad / s, determine the new current that will flow through the circuit.

A synchronous generator has been synchronized to an infinite grid of 13.8 kV and 60 Hz. The generator prime mover C/C is such that the no-load frequency is 62.5 Hz and the power slope is 1 MW/Hz. The AVR C/C (The reactive power against the terminal voltage C/C) is such that the zero reactive power voltage is 14.6 kV, while the slope is 0.4 MVAR/kV. Calculate: (a) the kVA loading of the generator and its power factor. (b) the settings of the prime mover and AVR such that the generator delivers 3 MW at 0.85 lagging power factor.
