Both static and dynamic voltage drop can be compensated by using both compensation inputs at the same time.

The unit is used for voltage control, where it replaces the tacho generator of the machine. The output signal is used as the actual value for the speed control system.

The unit is also used together with a field supply for controlled field current, in order to obtain automatic field weakening. The unit is connected at the factory for automatic field weakening if a controlled field exciter is ordered: if not, it is connected for voltage control.

Function Description of Automatic Control System of Electrical Power Plants

Part I. Shutting Down


In order to avoid running the sets at excessively low loads, the set which is next in sequence will be shut down when the load has fallen to a value below a predetermined level,

The shutting down instruction can be initiated by the stop push button being depressed, by a critical or поп-critical alarm being initiated, or for diesels by excessive alternator capacity being available. The ordinary shutting down program implies that the set is first unloaded. When the load has fallen below about 10%. the circuit breaker is tripped and the engine is allowed to run for one minute for the temperature to equalize before the stop solenoid is energized for the period normally necessary for the engine to run down. Starting and stopping instructions interrupt each other, except when the stop instruction is caused by an alarm, the stop instruction then having priority.
