Practice Test NERC Questions And Answers 2024 A transmission line is operating with a voltage phase angle different of 30 degrees between the sending Vs and the receiving bus Vr. If the receiving end load is suddenly increased, the voltage phase angle differe nce will be? - ANSWER -The phase angle will increase. When load is increased phase angle will increase.

Operating in a lagging mode. Inductive system Which of the following types of MW load is the most impacted by an intentional frequency reduction? - ANSWER -Motor Assume there are two 250 mile long transmission lines exporting an excessive amount of MW from a generation area to a load area. One of the lines suddenly trips and the area power system collapses within a few seconds. The most likely cause of the collapse? - ANSWER -Angle Instability The phase voltage in a wye -connected load is 277 V. What is the line to line voltage? - ANSWER -480 V A simple power system is composed of three lines conne cting generation to load. Each lines the same impedance, is initially loaded at 200 MW, and has a thermal limit of 400 MW. If one line trips, what the loading on the shortest remaining line be and will the thermal limit either remaining line be violated? - ANSWER -300 MW and No The best prediction of system load is the load forecast tool that uses? - ANSWER -Forecasted Weather If the phase angel at an open breaker is equal to 1/10 of a cycle, this is the the same angle as? - ANSWER -1/10 of 360 so 36 A ___________ tool is used to ensure the power system can respond within acceptable limits of N -1 - ANSWER -Contingency Analysis Which of the following activities would not be included in the procedures for transmission reliability? - ANSWER -Ancillary serv ice pricing The transmission Operator and BA shall provide documentation that operating personnel have ______ to implement real time actions to ensure the stable and reliable operation of the BES. - ANSWER -Proper NERC Certification Credential A utility d istribution bus has the following customer loads attached.
