Q#4 Power System Protection GATE EE 2008 (Set 1) MCQ +2 marks -0.66 marks

A lossless single machine infinite bus power system is shown below:

The synchronous generator transfers 1.0 per unit of power to the infinite bus. The critical clearing time of circuit breaker is 0.28s. If another identical synchronous generator is connected in parallel to the existing generator and each generator is scheduled to supply 0.5 per unit of power, then the critical clearing time of the circuit breaker will

 

Reduce to 0.14 s  

Reduce but will be more than 0.14 s

Remain constant at 0.28 s

Increase beyond 0.28 s
