Power System Protection MCQs Part 13

In case of the absence of a fourth conductor serving as return path, the zero-sequence current will

In case of the absence of a fourth conductor serving as return path, the zero-sequence current will:

  1. Not flow
  2. Flow
  3. Flow but less than 1.732 times
  4. Flow but 4 times more the actual value

Correct answer: 1. Not flow

The value of first cycle symmetrical fault current at certain bus is 30 kA. What is value of close and latch rating in RMS of circuit breaker

The value of first cycle symmetrical fault current at certain bus is 30 kA. What is value of close and latch rating in RMS of circuit breaker:

  1. 42.98 A
  2. 48 A
  3. 52.54 A
  4. 69.24 A

Correct answer: 2. 48 A

Solution: Close and latch (RMS) = 1.6 * 30 = 48 A
