The positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence reactances of a 15-MVA, 11-kV, three-phase, wye- connected generator are 11 percent, 8 percent, and 3 percent, respectively. The neutral of the generator is grounded, and the generator is excited to the rated voltage on open circuit. A line-to-ground fault occurs on phase a of the generator. Calculate the phase voltages and currents.
