1. A 25 MVA, 11 kV, three-phase generator has a sub transient reactance of 20%. The generator supplies two motors
over a transmission line with transformers at both ends as shown in the one-line diagram of Fig. 10.22. The motors
have rated inputs of 15 and 7.5 MVA, both 10 kV with 25% sub transient reactance. The three-phase transformers
are both rated 30 MVA, 10.8/121 kV, connection D–Y with leakage reactance of 10% each. The series reactance of
the line is 100 ohms. Draw the positive and negative sequence networks of the system with reactance marked in
per unit. Assume that the negative sequence reactance of each machine is equal to its sub transient reactance.
Omit resistances. Select generator rating as base in the generator circuit.

2. For the power system whose one-line diagram is shown in Fig. 10.25, sketch the zero sequence network.

3. Draw the zero sequence network for the system described in Example 10.3. Assume zero sequence reactance for
the generator and motors of 0.06 per unit. Current limiting reactors of 2.5 ohms each are connected in the neutral
of the generator and motor No. 2. The zero sequence reactance of the transmission line is 300 ohms.
4. Figure 11.11 shows a synchronous generator whose neutral is grounded through a reactance Xn. The generator has
balanced emfs and sequence reactances X1, X2 and X0 such that X1 = X2 >> X0.
(a) Draw the sequence networks of the generator as seen from the terminals.
(b) Derive expression for fault current for a solid line-to-ground fault on phase a.
(c) Show that, if the neutral is grounded solidly, the LG fault current would be more than the three-phase fault current.
(d) Write expression for neutral grounding reactance, such that he LG fault current is less than the three-phase fault
current.
5. Two 11 kV, 20 MVA, three-phase, star connected generators operate in parallel as shown in Fig. 11.15; the posi tive,
negative and zero sequence reactance of each being, respectively, j0.18, j0.15, j0.10 pu. The star point of one of
the generators is isolated and that of the other is earthed through a 2.0 ohm resistor. A single line-to-ground fault
occurs at the terminals of one of the generators. Estimate (i) the fault current, (ii) current in grounding resistor, and
(iii) the voltage across grounding resistor.

6. For the system of Example 10.3 the one-line diagram is redrawn in Fig. 11.16. On a base of 25 MVA and 11 kV in
generator circuit, the positive, negative and zero sequence networks of the system have been drawn already in
Figs 10.23, 10.24 and 10.27. Before the occurrence of a solid LG at bus Rn = 2 W G1 G2 Ia Fig. 11.15 Unsymmetrical
Fault Analysis 409 g, the motors are loaded to draw 15 and 7.5 MW at 10 kV, 0.8 leading power factor. If prefault
current is neglected, calculate the fault current and Sub transient current in all parts of the system. What voltages
behind Sub transient reactance must be used in a positive sequence network if prefault current is to be accounted
for?

7. For Example, 11.2, assume that the grounded generator is solidly grounded. Find the fault current and voltage of the
healthy phase for a line-to-line fault on terminals of the generators. Assume solid fault (Zf = 0).
8. For Example, 11.2, assume that the grounded generator is solidly grounded. Find the fault current in each phase
and voltage of the healthy phase for a double line-to-ground fault on terminals of the generator. Assume solid fault
(Z f = 0).
9. For Example 10.3, positive, negative and zero sequence networks have been drawn in Figs 10.23, 10.24 and 10.27.
Using the bus impedance method of fault analysis, find fault currents for a solid LG fault at (i) bus e and (ii) bus f.
Also find bus voltages and line currents in case (i). Assume the prefault currents to be zero and the prefault
voltages to be 1 pu.
10. A single line-to-ground fault (on phase a) occurs on the bus 1 of the system. Find
