Which of the following is the essential requirement of peak load plant ?
Correct answer: D. It should be capable of starting quickly
- A. It should run at high speed
- B. It should produce high voltage
- C. It should be small in size
- D. It should be capable of starting quickly
Explanation
A peak-load plant operates for short periods and must respond rapidly when demand rises. Quick starting is therefore more essential than high speed, high voltage, or small size alone.
