A 20-MVA, 6.6-kV, 3-phase alternator is connected to a 3-phase transmission line. The per unit positive sequence, negative sequence and zero sequence impedance of the alternator are j0.1, and j0.04 respectively. The neutral of the alternator is connected to ground through an inductive reactor of j0.05 p.u. The per unit positive, negative and zero sequence impedances of the transmission line are j0.1 and j0.3 respectively. All per unit values are based on the machine ratings. A solid ground fault occurs at one phase of the far end of the transmission line. The voltage of the alternator neutral with respect to ground during the fault is
A
513.8 V
B
889.9 V
C
1112.0 V
D
642.2 V

A surge of 20 kV magnitude travels along a lossless cable towards its junction with two identical lossless overhead transmission lines. The inductance and the capacitance of the cable are 0.4 mH and 0.5 $$\mu F$$ per km. The inductance and capacitance of the overhead transmission lines are 1.5 mH and 0.015 $$\mu F$$ per km. The magnitude of the voltage at the junction due to surge is
A
36.72 kV
B
18.36 kV
C
6.07 kV
D
33.93 kV
