Load Sharings
Load Sharings
(Depending
upon inductivity & unbalancing of load).
Load sharing % remains same for all generator (different/same rating) during load sharing mode.
In order to have same load sharing % for generators, feedback control system is required
otherwise load will equally divide which is dangerous for different size of generators.
By decreasing load sharing set point (GOV setting) during load sharing with another generator,
we can de-rate generator power in % but load sharing % remains same.
Genset # 01
Genset # 02
In above example: Both gensets are rated at 2112 KW. Both are operating in speed mode together (as
load sharing mode).
genset # 01 has 100% load sharing (It can operate at its rated power which is 2112 KW)
genset # 02 has set at 51% load sharing (It can operate at its de-rated power which is
0.51x2112 = 1077.12 KW)
Now, during load sharing mode both has same load % which is around 61% means (genset # 01 is
delivering 0.61x 2112 = 1308 KW and genset # 02 is delivering 0.61 x 1077.12 = 657 KW)
