Accelerating Power - ANSWER-In a GENERATOR, the difference between the MECHANICAL INPUT POWER and the electrical output POWER (assuming no LOSSES). For a GENERATOR's TORQUE ANGLE to change, the GENERATOR must have accelerating POWER. Accumulated Inadvertent - ANSWER-The accumulation over time of INADVERTENT ENERGY. The accumulated inadvertent account of a BALANCING AUTHORITY represents the amount of excess ENERGY a BALANCING AUTHORITY has either supplied to the INTERCONNECTION or absorbed fr...

When automation conceals an escalating problem from the operator until the point when it cannot handle the problem any longer, and then hands off control of the ailing system to the operator, that is known as _____. - correct answer automation surprise The "deer in the headlights" effect refers to high-stress situations in which people tend to be slow or unable to act. According to attention research, this happens because when stress is very high, _____. - correct...

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 difference will be? The phase angle will increase. When load is increased phase angle will increase. A load has a power factor of 0.9 lagging. If the load draws 100 MVA, what is the MW draw? 90 pf= mw/mva The high side of a delta-wye connection transformer is connected to a power s...

History of Quality Management Late 20th Century - U.S. and European firms begin to implement Quality Management programs (1980's) - U.S. establishes the Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award (1987) - Professional societies and publications grow at a staggering rate - Quality entered the service arena - Womak writes "The Machine that Changed the World" and coined the term "lean" - Motorola introduces Six Sigma / DMAIC (1990) - General Electric widely applies Six Sigma (1995) - Le...

Disturbance Any perturbation to the electric system or the unexpected change in ACE that is caused by the sudden loss of generation or interruption of load Interconnection reliability operating limit ( IROL) The value (such as MW, MVar, Amperes, Frequency or Volts) derived from, or a subset of the System Operating Limits, which if exceeded, could expose a widespread area of the Bulk Electric System to instability, uncontrolled separation(s) or cascading outages. Interconnection r...
