Department of Electrical Engineering – UET Lahore Task 5 - b Reviving System back to its Normal State Diagram Properties
Department of Electrical Engineering – UET Lahore For Part (A) – Part (D), the various possible options are as under: Option 1: Tap Changing Transformers For 132/11 kV and 66/11 kV transformers, the maximum tap setting can be 1.05 and minimum tap setting can be 0.95. You can only increase the taps in steps of 0.0125. Note: Tap Changer is always installed on the HV side therefore, in order to increase the voltage on secondary side of a step-down transformer, tap setting should be reduced on the primary side and vice versa.

Part (B): No Absorption of VARs on any generators The reactive power of generators should be within the limits without negative sign (i.e., implyingthe motor action) Modified LF Results (B) Adopted Strategy The strategies opted previously cleared this problem and the VARS on generators were positive.
Adopted Strategy Adding another capacitor bank on an 11kv bus and changed transformer turns ratio Assignment Part (A)[5] •Switch off the second transmission line (50 Km Lynx) between Bus 1 and 101 •Compare results with the Base Case •Provide solution to violations of voltage criteria and overloading, if any BASE CASE PART A The bus voltages are unbalanced now, to fix this we can increase the capacitor bank var. by increasing the AR from 4.8 to 10.8 balanced bus voltage has been achieved.
There are unbalanced oltages and overloading on line fro bus B to bus C. to fix this increase in the capacitor bank ar resoled the bus unbalanced oltages •Then switch off the second transmission line between Bus 1 and 101 •Compare results with Base Case BASE CASE PART B •Now add a 3rdTransmission Line between Bus1 and 101 and compare the results with the base case BASE CASE PART B
