Generator Paralleling Simulator

Goal: Start and parallel Generator 2. Balance active and reactive loads, while maintaining nominal voltage and frequency.
[b]Paralleling Procedure[br][/b][br][list=1][*]Start the generator prime mover and bring it up to speed.[/*][*]Adjust the incoming generator to nominal voltage and frequency.[br][/*][*]Turn on the synchroscope to the incoming generator position.[/*][*]Adjust speed until the synchroscope is turning slowly in the fast (clockwise) direction, about 1/10 Hz higher than the bus.[/*][*]Bring the incoming voltage to slightly higher than bus voltage.[/*][*]When ready, close the circuit breaker when synchroscope is at the 11:00 position.[/*][*]Balance the active load by making adjustments to the governors. This will have a secondary effect of raising or lowering the frequency and voltage.[/*][*]Balance the reactive load by making adjustments to the voltage regulators. This will have a secondary effect of raising or lowering the voltage.[/*][*]Maintain voltage and frequency within the limits while balancing the load.[/*][/list][br]You may change the active and reactive loads with he power triangle. This represents the electrical demand on the generators. Try not to overload them.[br][br]Click the [i]Specifications[/i] button to see the "house diagrams" which display the voltage, frequency and load relationships.[br][br]You can use your up and down arrow keys for fine tuning the governor and voltage regulator settings.
