In a transformer, the turns ratio k = N2/N1. If k > 1, the transformer is:
A Step-down transformer
B Step-up transformer
C Isolation transformer
D Auto transformer
Correct Answer:  B. Step-up transformer
EXPLANATION

When secondary turns are greater than primary turns (k > 1), voltage is stepped up.

Test
The slip of an induction motor is defined as:
A (Ns - Nr)/Ns
B (Nr - Ns)/Nr
C Ns/Nr
D (Ns - Nr)/Nr
Correct Answer:  A. (Ns - Nr)/Ns
EXPLANATION

Slip s = (Ns - Nr)/Ns, where Ns is synchronous speed and Nr is rotor speed.

Test
The synchronous speed of a 4-pole, 50 Hz induction motor is:
A 1500 rpm
B 3000 rpm
C 750 rpm
D 1000 rpm
Correct Answer:  A. 1500 rpm
EXPLANATION

Synchronous speed Ns = 120f/P = (120 × 50)/4 = 1500 rpm.

Test
In a three-phase induction motor, the rotating magnetic field is produced by:
A Rotor current alone
B Three-phase stator currents with 120° phase difference
C DC excitation in stator
D Permanent magnets in rotor
Correct Answer:  B. Three-phase stator currents with 120° phase difference
EXPLANATION

Three-phase currents 120° apart create a rotating magnetic field that rotates at synchronous speed Ns = 120f/P.

Test
The back EMF in a DC motor is given by the expression?
A E = PφZN/60
B E = PφZN/120
C E = φZN/60
D E = 2PφZN/60
Correct Answer:  B. E = PφZN/120
EXPLANATION

Back EMF in DC motor: Eb = PφZN/120 where P = poles, φ = flux, Z = conductors, N = speed in rpm.

Test
Which of the following is the primary function of a commutator in a DC machine?
A To convert AC to DC
B To reverse the direction of current in armature conductors
C To reduce iron losses
D To increase flux density
Correct Answer:  B. To reverse the direction of current in armature conductors
EXPLANATION

The commutator reverses the direction of current in armature conductors as they move from one pole to another, ensuring unidirectional torque production.

Test
Q.137 Easy Power Systems
Which of the following voltage levels is NOT part of the Indian transmission network classification?
A 400 kV
B 275 kV
C 220 kV
D 150 kV
Correct Answer:  D. 150 kV
EXPLANATION

The standard Indian transmission voltage levels are 765 kV, 400 kV, 275 kV, and 220 kV. 150 kV is typically sub-transmission voltage level.

Test
Q.138 Easy Power Systems
In the Indian grid, renewable energy penetration targets for 2024-2025 (non-hydro) approximately target what percentage of total generation capacity?
A 25%
B 35%
C 45%
D 55%
Correct Answer:  C. 45%
EXPLANATION

As per India's national renewable energy targets and Ministry of Power guidelines, approximately 45% non-fossil capacity addition is targeted for 2024-2025.

Test
Q.139 Easy Power Systems
Which type of power system stability is primarily concerned with the system's ability to maintain synchronism after a small disturbance?
A Transient stability
B Steady-state stability
C Voltage stability
D Frequency stability
Correct Answer:  B. Steady-state stability
EXPLANATION

Steady-state stability examines the system's response to small, gradual disturbances, while transient stability deals with large, sudden disturbances.

Test
Q.140 Easy Power Systems
In load flow analysis, if a bus is specified with PV (constant voltage and active power), what variable is calculated?
A Voltage magnitude
B Reactive power
C Frequency
D Phase angle
Correct Answer:  B. Reactive power
EXPLANATION

In PV buses, active power (P) and voltage magnitude (V) are specified, and the load flow solution calculates the reactive power (Q) and voltage angle (δ).
