I was the second person to be interviewed. Some of the questions posed to me were:
Where do you live?
How far is your home from the institute?
Are you a day-scholar or a hosteller?
What is your greatest strength?
How can you justify it?
What is your weakness?
What are the equipments that you would use inbetween when u have to connect a transformer to busbars?
What is the function of an isolator?
Why only 3 phase?
Why not 4 phase & 5 phase?
What are the different types of Circuit Breakers?
Which is the latest one?
Is the voltage distribution on a string insulator same throughout?
If not, then how to equalise it?
How would u decide between whether to use a 2 winding transformer or an autotransformer?
How can u define the efficiency of a transformer?
Why are the generating voltages limited to 33 kV?
If now-a-days we have High voltage insulation systems say XLPE which take up very little space, then why don’t we go for higher generating voltages?
What is the symbol of a turbine?
Why is the symbol of that very shape?
