Questions and Answers

What happens if one or more of the generators lose synchronism following a disturbance?

  • Synchronism is maintained without any impact
  • Power can be transferred between the machines with loss

  • The generator efficiency increases
  • When is a system said to be transiently unstable?

  • Following a disturbance, one or more of the generators lose synchronism (correct)
  • All generators maintain synchronism at all times
  • There are no disturbances in the system
  • The voltage magnitude is fixed for all generators
  • What is the primary requirement for all generators to operate as an interconnected system?

  • The voltage magnitude must be different for each generator
  • The rotors must turn at exactly the same speed (correct)
  • The rotors must turn at different speeds
