Tutorial 3 Solution

This document contains solutions to three power systems engineering problems involving fault current calculations for different systems. The first problem calculates the total and individual generator fault currents for a two generator system feeding a transmission line with a fault at the far end. The second problem calculates various fault currents and circuit breaker ratings for a fault on a motor terminal fed from a transformer. The third problem calculates fault currents and contributions for a two generator system feeding a fault through a transformer.

Tutorial 3 Solution

1. A station with two generators feeds through transformers a transmission system operating at 132
kV. The far end of the transmission system consisting of 200 km long double circuit line is
connected to load from bus B. If a 3-phase fault occurs at bus B, determine the total fault current
and fault current supplied by each generator. Select 75 MVA and 11 kV on LV side and 132 kV on
h.v. side as base values.
2. Two motors having transient reactances 0.3 p.u. and subtransient reactances 0.2 p.u. based on their
own ratings of 6 MVA, 6.8 kV are supplied by a transformer rated 15 MVA, 112 kV / 6.6 kV and
its reactance is 0.18 p.u. A 3-phase short circuit occurs at the terminals of one of the motors.
Calculate (a) the subtransient fault current (b) subtransient current in circuit breaker A (c) the
momentary circuit rating of the breaker and (d) if the circuit breaker has a breaking time of 4 cycles
calculate the current to be interrupted by the circuit breaker A.
3. Two 11 kV, 3-phase, 5 MVA generators having sub-transient reactance of 3% and 2% respectively
operate in parallel. Suppose the power loaded through a 11/220 kV, 10 MVA transformer has %
equivalent reactance of 4%. Calculate fault current and fault MVA for there-phase occurring on the
H.T side of the transformer as shown in Figure. Also calculate the fault MVA supplied by each
generator.
