Two generators are supplying a load. Both the generators have a no-load frequency of61.5 Hz and the slope sp of 1 MW/HZ. If they are supplying a real load of 2.0 MW at 0.8 pflagging, what would be the system frequency and power sharing between two generators?What measures can be taken to make the frequency 60 HZ. If an additional 1.0 MW load isconnected to the existing one what would the system frequency be.
If 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.
