Multiple choice questions covering topics like circuit breaker operation, synchronous generator parameters, and load flow modeling. 2. A short answer question calculating fault current for a generator supplying a load. 3. Two long answer questions: one calculating voltage across circuit breaker contacts during a fault, and another calculating fault current contribution from parallel generators. 4. Additional long answer questions covering advantages of the Y-bus model for load flow analysis, per-unit reactances of generators connected to a common bus, and constructing an admittance matrix for a 4-bus power system.
