5.4.2 LOADING GENERATOR BUS
Once the generator closes its load switch, the generator bus is seen as available and the generator
bus LED illuminates.
In Test Mode , the generator bus load switch is closed automatically when the generator bus is
seen as available, synchronising to the Mains if required.
Load ramping takes place when appropriate, the DSE8660 MKII controls the generator bus to provide
the configured power to the load and or mains supply.
When Test Mode is configured for Island Mode, the generator bus is ramped up to take the load off
the mains and the mains breaker is then opened.
5.4.2.1 BUS MODE
In this mode, the generator bus is used to provide a Fixed amount of active power (kW). This is set
using the DSE Configuration Suite Software in SCADA | Bus | MSC Link | Load Parallel Power
parameter.
How much reactive power provided depends upon the kV Ar or pf selection:
• kV Ar – The generator bus provides the number of kV Ar set in the Load Parallel V Ar
parameter. The power factor is variable in order to achieve this.
• pf – The generator bus produces power at the power factor set in the Load Power Factor
parameter. The kV Ar is variable in order to achieve this.
If all start requests are removed, the Stopping Sequence begins.
5.4.2.2 MAINS MODE
In this mode, the generator bus is used to provide a Variable amount of active power (kW), to
maintain the mains import or export levels at the configured values. This is set using the DSE
Configuration Suite Software in SCADA | Bus | MSC Link | Load Parallel Power parameter.
How much reactive power is taken from or exported to the mains depends upon the kV Ar or pf
selection:
• kV Ar – The generator bus is used to provide a fxied amount of kV Ar to maintain the mains
import or export V Ar at the level set in the Load Parallel V Ar parameter. The mains power
factor is variable in order to achieve this.
• pf – The generator bus is used to provide enough kV Ar to maintain the mains import or
export at the power factor configured into the Load Power Factor parameter. The mains kV Ar
is variable in order to achieve this.
As the load increases and decreases, generators on the generator bus may start and stop
automatically depending upon their configuration.
If all start requests are removed, the Stopping Sequence begins.
