    The document contains solutions to two questions. For question 14, the summary is that the 2011 edition of BS 7671 requires all electrical installations after January 2012 to include surge protection devices, so the answer is true. For question 13, the summary is that direct online starting of high-rating motors would cause undervoltage since the voltage drop of all motors would be added, but star-delta starters mitigate this, so the answer considering only DOL starting would be undervoltage.

    Solution question 14:

    The edition of BS 7671 published on  1 July 2011 and which came into effect on 1 January 2012,requires
    all electrical installation after 1 january 2012 to include correct selection and installation of surge
    protection devices(SPD).Thus the answer will be TRUE.

    Solution question 13:

    As in an induction motor,the voltage drop is given by V=Ldi/dt,where L=inductance of the


    circuit.Now if it is direct online starting(DOL),then voltage drop of all the motors will be added
    and the supply voltage will be undervoltage.But in star-delta starter this problem is
    mitigated.Hence we generally use star-delta starter for high rating motors.Also it gives
    protection against overcurrent during starting.

    Now, for the question considering DOL starter as there is no mention of star-delta starter, the
    answer will be undervoltage.
