Long answer type question :( Answer any three questions)

1. The three bus-bar conductors in an outdoor substation are supported by unit of post
type insulator. Each unit consist of a stack of 3 pin type insulators fixed one on the top
of the other. The voltage across the lowest insulator is 13.1KV and that across the next
unit is 11KV. Find the bus-bar voltage of the station. Mention the disadvantages of low
power factor? 4+1
2. A factory load consist of the following , i) an induction motor of 50hp with 0.8pf, ii) A
synchronous motor of 25hp with 0.9pf, iii) lighting load of 10kw at unity pf, find the
total kva? 5
3. When the supports are unequal levels what will be the total sag? Derive the
mathematical expression of string efficiency?
4. The two towers height respectively 30m & 90m respectively support a transmission line
conductor at water crossing. The horizontal distance between the towers is 600m. If the
tension in the conductor is 1600kg, find the minimum clearance of the conductor and
water and clearance mid-way between the supports. Weight of conductor is 1.5kg/m.
Bases of the towers can be considered to be at water level.
