Tap Changing Transformers: The excitation control method is satisfactory only for relatively short lines. However, it is not suitable for long lines as the voltage at the alternator terminals will…
Brown Boveri Regulator: In this type of Brown Boveri Regulator, exciter field rheostat is varied continuously or in small steps instead of being first completely cut in and then completely…
Tirril Voltage Regulator: In this type of Tirril Voltage Regulator, a fixed resistance is cut in and cut out of the exciter field circuit of the alternator. This is achieved…
Voltage Control Method in Power System: In a modern power system, electrical energy from the generating station is delivered to the ultimate consumers through a network of transmission and distribution.…
Electric Supply System: The conveyance of electric power from a power station to consumers' premises is known as Electric Supply System. An electric supply system consists of three principal components…
Low Power Factor: The Low Power Factor plays an importance role in ac. circuits since power consumed depends upon this factor. It is clear from above that for fixed power…
Selection of Power Generation Unit in Load Curve: The load on a Power Generation Unit is seldom constant; it varies from time to time. Obviously, a single generating unit (i.e.,…
Variable Load on Power Station: The load on a power station varies from time to time due to uncertain demands of the consumers and is known as Variable Load on…
