Question
I need the answer as soon as possible
Figure 7.4 shows two 11 kV generators feeding a 132 kV double circuit line through gen-
erator transformers. Each 132 kV line is 40 km long and with an inductive reactance of
0.42/km. Calculate the fault level for a three-phase fault at:
Gen.1
11 kV
125 MVA
X = 28%
11/132 kV
125 MVA
X = 18%
40km
B
a. Point A on the busbar close to generator 1.
b. Point B at the mid-point of one of the lines.
A
Gen.2
11 kV
75 MVA
X = 18%
132/11 kV
90 MVA
X = 12%
Use a 100 MVA base for the calculation, express your answer in Amperes and ignore
the effect of any system loads.
