Sample BHEL Supervisor Trainee Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the BHEL Supervisor Trainee exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1In a series DC circuit, three resistors of 2 Ω, 3 Ω and 5 Ω are connected across a 20 V supply. What is the current?
A.2 A
B.4 A
C.1 A
D.10 A
Explanation: Total resistance R = 2 + 3 + 5 = 10 Ω. Current I = V/R = 20/10 = 2 A.
2The SI unit of electrical resistance is the:
A.ampere
B.ohm
C.volt
D.watt
Explanation: Electrical resistance is measured in ohms (Ω). Ampere is current, volt is potential difference, and watt is power.
3Which machine converts mechanical energy into electrical energy?
A.Transformer
B.Motor
C.Generator
D.Rectifier
Explanation: A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. A motor does the reverse; a transformer changes AC voltage level; a rectifier converts AC to DC.
4Ohm's law states that V =:
A.I/R
B.I + R
C.I − R
D.IR
Explanation: Ohm's law: voltage V equals current I times resistance R (V = IR), for ohmic conductors at constant temperature.
5In a three-phase system, the line voltage is √3 times the phase voltage for a:
A.star (Y) connection
B.delta (Δ) connection only
C.series DC circuit
D.single-phase transformer
Explanation: In a star-connected three-phase system, V_L = √3 V_ph. In delta, V_L = V_ph.
6The specific gravity of electrolyte in a fully charged lead-acid battery is approximately:
A.1.00
B.1.28
C.0.80
D.2.50
Explanation: A fully charged lead-acid cell typically has electrolyte specific gravity around 1.25–1.28. Near 1.00 indicates discharged/water-like density.
7A transformer works on the principle of:
A.self induction only
B.electrostatic induction
C.mutual induction
D.photoelectric effect
Explanation: Transformers transfer energy between windings by mutual induction under alternating flux.
8Power factor of a pure resistive AC circuit is:
A.0
B.0.5 lagging
C.infinity
D.1 (unity)
Explanation: In a purely resistive circuit, voltage and current are in phase, so cos φ = 1 (unity power factor).
9The primary function of a fuse in an electrical circuit is to:
A.protect against overcurrent
B.increase voltage
C.improve power factor
D.store energy
Explanation: A fuse melts under excessive current, interrupting the circuit to protect conductors and equipment.
10Which of the following is a ferromagnetic material?
A.Copper
B.Soft iron
C.Aluminium
D.Wood
Explanation: Soft iron is strongly ferromagnetic and used in magnetic cores. Copper and aluminium are diamagnetic/paramagnetic conductors; wood is non-magnetic.

About the BHEL Supervisor Trainee Exam

The BHEL Supervisor Trainee (ST) recruitment selects diploma engineers for supervisory roles across BHEL manufacturing units and power-sector sites. Selection is a two-stage process: a scored Computer Based Examination followed by qualifying Document Verification/Scrutiny. Unlike Engineer Trainee (75% CBE + 25% interview), ST final merit is based only on CBE marks.

Exam sponsor: Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL). The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

Stage I: Computer Based Examination — 150 objective MCQs, 150 marks, 120 minutes, bilingual Hindi/English, +1/−0.25 marking. Stage II: Document Verification/Scrutiny — qualifying only. Final merit based only on CBE score (no scored interview for Supervisor Trainees).

Time Limit

120 minutes

Passing Score

Category-wise CBE cut-off; shortlisting for DV typically in 1:3 vacancy ratio; final merit solely on CBE

Exam / Certification Fees
