INFO
This can be used if the generator must operate base-loaded.
4.8.4 Low droop setting
To illustrate the influence of a low droop setting, the diagram below shows how a frequency variation gives a change in the load, the
principle is the same with voltage droop regulation. The load change is marked as ΔP.
In this diagram, the load change (ΔP) is larger than before. This means that the generator will vary more in loading than with the
higher droop setting.

INFO
This can be used if the generator must operate as a peak load machine.
4.8.5 Compensation for isochronous governors
When the genset is equipped with a governor only providing isochronous operation, the droop setting can be used to compensate
for the missing droop setting possibility on the governor.
