FINAL On PSP

This document contains instructions and questions for a final exam on power system protection and control. It is divided into three parts: explanatory questions, multiple choice, and workout problems. The explanatory questions cover causes of CT errors, CT burden and composite error, characteristics of Rogowski coils, and advantages and disadvantages of CCVTs. The multiple choice questions test knowledge of different relay types. The workout problems involve determining backup protection schemes, CT specifications, and settings for motor overload protection.

Part II: Multiple Choice Questions (6 pts)


1. Which one of relay is that operates when the phasor difference of two or more similar electrical quantities
exceeds a pre-determined value.?
(a) Differential relay (b) Over current relay
(c) Distance relay (d) Directional relay
2. The material mostly preferred as core of protective CTs is
(a) nickel–iron (b) hot-rolled non-oriented silicon steel
(c) cold-rolled oriented silicon steel (d) none of the above
3. The burden of an overcurrent relay is helpful in deciding
(a) transformation ratio of a CT (b) volt–ampere rating of a CT
(c) transformation ratio of a PT (d) volt–ampere rating of a PT
Part III: Workout Questions (18 pts)
1. Determine the possible local and remote back-up protection for a fault location as shown in the Figure
below? Assume that breaker I, breaker L and breaker M failed to operate. (8 pts)
2. A small power plant consists of three 5 MVA, 6.6 kV, 3-phase, 50 Hz alternators with 20% reactance,
each connected to a common busbar. The busbar supplies a number of feeders, on each of which are
installed CTs with details as follows:

CT ratio = 600/5 A
CT secondary resistance = 0.8 ohm
Burden impedance = 1.2 ohms
Neglecting the lead burden and assuming that no generating source exists at the far ends of the feeders,
specify (10 pts)

(a) the secondary voltage up to which the CTs should not saturate (knee-point voltage)
(b) accuracy limit factor and accuracy class
(c) rated burden of the CT

3. An induction motor is to be protected against overload. Nameplate details are 3-phase, 6.6 kV, 1250 kW,
0.8 p.f. The motor can withstand 15% overload continuously. A thermal relay is connected across a C.T.
of 200/1 ratio. The time constant of the relay is also 10 minutes. The range of settings is 70 –130% of 1 A
in steps of 5%. Determine (Bonus)
(a) The relay current setting in %
(b) The relay Plug setting multiplier if the fault current is 1571.82 A
(c) The operating time of relay if the time setting multiplier is 0.05 and the following graph is
Time/PSM curve
