Synchronization Design

Purpose

  • Objective: To match the electrical characteristics of multiple generators before connecting them to a common bus or grid, preventing system disturbances and ensuring smooth integration.

Key Parameters

  • Voltage: The voltage of each generator must match the bus voltage.
  • Frequency: The frequency of each generator must be adjusted to match the system frequency.
  • Phase Angle: The phase angle between generators must be aligned to avoid inrush currents and system faults.

Synchronization Techniques

  • Manual Synchronization:

    • Visual Tools: Use synchroscopes to visually match the phase angles.
    • Frequency Meters: Adjust generator speeds to match the grid frequency.

  • Automatic Synchronization:

    • Automatic Synchronizers: Devices that automatically align voltage, frequency, and phase before connecting generators.
    • Control Systems: Integration with PLCs or other control systems for automated synchronization.

Design Considerations

  • Synchronization Equipment: Include synchroscopes, automatic synchronizers, and voltage and frequency regulators.
  • Safety Features: Incorporate safety mechanisms to prevent incorrect synchronization and system faults.
  • Testing and Calibration: Regular testing and calibration of synchronization equipment to ensure accuracy.
