Even when a particular generator in a generating station is
under maintenance we are still able to maintain the same
power output. How is this possible? Does the tie line
between 2 generating stations have a role to play in it?

Answer Posted / sudheer868

It must be noted that installed capacity of a power plant
is always designed to be greater than the load demand.Hence
if any repair or maintaince remaining all are in operation.
If no reserve capacity of plant then tie line has a role to
play.Tie line is line connecting two generating station
buses.Hence required power in one plant is obtained from
reseve capacity of other plant.

ASTM D 3455 - Standard Test Methods for Compatibility of Construction Material with Electrical Insulating Oil of Petroleum Origin has been used for Testing Transformer Oils with a product placed in it. Aged Control Oil has a Power Factor of 0.032% at 100°C. Aged Oil with a Test component has a Power Factor of 0.093% at 100°. Is this increase acceptable? If not why? How much increase is acceptable?
