Q3. With Respect to Insulated and Earthed Neutral Systems used on board:
a) Discuss the Advantages and Disadvantages of both Insulated and Earthed Systems used on board. (8)
b) What is earth fault and how do you identify Earth fault in the 440 V system onboard. (4)
c) Discuss the consequences of earth fault in an earthed distribution system. (4)
Q5. With Reference to different types of transformers used onboard.
a) Discuss the basic principle of operation of a transformer (5)
b) Enumerate the different types of transformers used onboard also state their functions for which they are used. (5)
c) A 440/110 V single phase transformer supplies a load of 5kW at 0.8 power factor load. Calculate the primary and secondary currents. (Ignoring transformer power losses)? (6)
Q6. A 100 KVA, 2400/240 V, 50 Hz, 1-phase transformer has no- load current of 0.64 A and a core loss of 700 W, when its high voltage side is energized at rated voltage and frequency . calculate the two components of no-load current. If this transformer supplies a load current of 40 amp at 0.8 lagging power factor at its low voltage side, determine the primary current and its power factor. Ignore leakage impedance drop. (16)
