← TechnologyDuring peak demand on a three-phase power grid, which outcome occurs when distributed generator voltage phase angles lag?
A)Increased reactive power compensation needed✓
B)Improved voltage stability across grid
C)Decreased line losses from impedance
D)Enhanced real power transfer capability
💡 Explanation
Increased reactive power leads to larger phase angle differences due to insufficient synchronization caused by the angular droop control mechanism adjusting generator output, because voltage lags increase. Therefore, compensation is needed, rather than improving stability unless corrected; losses can increase with reactive current.
