Which of the following buses is also known as P-Q bus ?

Which of the following buses is also known as P-Q bus ? Correct Answer Load bus

Classification of Buses:

The power system is nothing but the interconnection of the various bus.

Each of these buses is associated with four electrical parameters namely voltage with magnitude and phase angle, active power, and reactive power.

Slack Bus:

  • Slack Bus is also known as Swing or Reference Bus.
  • One of the generator buses is considered as a slack bus.
  • The slack bus does not exist in real rather it is assumed for the consideration of losses occurring during power transmission.
  • Actually, there exist only two buses in the power system, Load Bus and Generator Bus for which active power is specified.
  • Since active power delivered by Generator Bus and consumed by Load Bus differ
  • This means that a power loss equal to the difference between Generator Bus P and Load Bus P is occurring.
  • This loss can only be calculated after the solution of Load Flow.
  • Therefore to supply power loss, an extra generator bus is considered for which bus magnitude and voltage are specified, and active power and reactive power are to be calculated.
  • This active power of slack bus is the equivalent power loss occurring in different systems.
  • Generally, the phase angle of the slack bus is taken for reference for the entire load flow solution. Therefore this bus is also called Reference Bus.​

 

Load Bus:

  • For load bus, real power P and reactive power Q are known but the magnitude and phase angle of bus voltage is unknown.
  • It is desired to find the bus voltage using load flow analysis. At load bus, voltage is allowed to vary within some specified limit.

 

Generator Bus:

  • Generator Bus is also called a voltage-controlled bus.
  • The generator is connected to this bus.
  • Therefore the bus voltage corresponding to generation voltage and active power generation corresponding to generator rating is specified for this bus.

Related Questions

Each of the question below consists of a question and three statements number I, II and III given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statement are sufficient to answer the question. If the bus is travelling from Surat to Ahmadabad and a car is travelling from Ahmadabad to Surat, then what is the distance between Surat and Ahmadabad? I. The speed of a car is 40% less than the speed of bus. Bus started at 9 am and car started at 10 am and they meet at 3 pm of the same day. II. After travelling for 1 hour, because of traffic average speed of bus is decreased by 20% and covers distance between Surat to Ahmadabad in 11 hours. Original speed of car is 20% less than original speed of bus and before crossing bus it covered 200 km if starts 1 hour later than bus. After crossing car, bus covers remaining distance in 5 hours. III. Speed of bus is 10 km/hr more than the speed of car and before crossing car ratio of distances covered bus and car in same time was 5 : 4. Time taken by car to cover the distance between Ahmadabad and Surat is 2 hours 15 minutes more than time taken by bus to cover the same distance.
As a result of a collision between two buses a passenger in one of the buses died. The accident occurred due to negligence of the drivers of both the buses. In a suit by the legal representative of the deceased against owners of both the buses, which one of the following statements is legally sustainable?
