Q1. A generating station has an installed capacity of 50,000 kW and delivers \(220 \times 10^6\) units per annum. If the annual fixed charges are Rs.160 per kW installed capacity and running charges are 4 paise per kWh, the cost per unit generated is

Q2. For the bus admittance matrix \(Y_{bus}\) of a \(4\)-bus system given in per unit, the buses having shunt elements are
\(Y_{bus} = j\begin{bmatrix}-5 & 2 & 2.5 & 0 \\2 & -10 & 2.5 & 4 \\2.5 & 2.5 & -9 & 4 \\0 & 4 & 4 & -8 \end{bmatrix}\)

Q3. Murray loop test is performed on a faulty cable 300 m long. At balance, the resistance connected to the faulty core was set at \(R=15\:\Omega\) and the resistance of the resistor connected to the sound core was \(R=45\:\Omega\). Calculate the distance of the fault point from the test end.
