  2. Droop speed control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droop_speed_control

    Droop speed control is a control mode used for AC electrical power generators, whereby the power output of a generator reduces as the line frequency increases. It is commonly used as the speed control mode of the governor of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid .

  4. Diesel generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_generator

    The load can be shared among parallel-running generators through load sharing. Load sharing can be achieved by using droop speed control controlled by the frequency at the generator, while it constantly adjusts the engine fuel control to shift load to and from the remaining power sources. A diesel generator will take more load when the fuel ...

  5. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

    An electrical grid may have many types of generators and loads; generators must be controlled to maintain stable operation of the system. In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load.

  6. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

    The voltage, frequency and phase angle must be controlled each time a generator is to be connected to a grid. [1] Generating units for connection to a power grid have an inherent droop speed control that allows them to share load proportional to their rating. Some generator units, especially in isolated systems, operate with isochronous ...

    Droop quota, a type of quota for counting and transferring votes in an election; Droop speed control, a speed control mode of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid. Leading-edge droop flap, a type of high-lift device found on the wings of some aircraft; Leading-edge droop, a feature of some aircraft wings

  8. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    In an electrical grid, the short circuit ratio (or SCR) is the ratio of: the short circuit apparent power (SCMVA) in the case of a line-line-line-ground (3LG) fault at the location in the grid where some generator is connected, to: the power rating of the generator itself (GMW).

  9. Talk:Droop speed control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Droop_speed_control

    Droop control is basically proportional-only control, typically with a 5% proportional band for generator shaft speed versus power throttle opening. The speed setting on the governor/controller is used to bring an offline generator up to speed and matched in phase so that the breaker may be closed.
