  1. A shunt reactor at 100 MVAr is operated at 98% of its rated voltage and at 96% of its rated frequency. The reactive power absorbed by the reactor is
    1. 98 MVAr
    2. 104.02 MVAr
    3. 96.04 MVAr
    4. 100.04 MVAr
Correct Option: D

Reactive Power =
=
Xs2πƒL

Preact =
0.98V × 0.98V
/
2πL × 0.96ƒ2πƒL

=
0.98 × 0.98
× 100
0.96

= 100.04 MVAr
