1. Why We transmit Power at High Voltages?
2. What is Surge Impedance Loading?
3. What is Corona loss? Why we send Power at High voltages even when it increases the Corona loss?
4. About Compensators of the line.
5. What are the advantages of single frequency of the grid throughout the country?
6. Buchholz relay?
After then they moved towards Internships and Projects. They asked about Indian Electricity market, Developments in Indian Electricity, No.of Grids in India, Open Access, Power Exchanges of India etc. that were my Internship topics at Power System Operation Corporation Limited(POSOCO).
