10. Incorrect wiring for exciting
Fault caused by automatic
voltage regulator AVR
Voltage can not be regulated, regulating potential meter is fault
Generator set automatically stopped after loading, current setting incorrect
After entering sampling signal no exciting output
The voltage can not be established because of insufficient residual voltage of electric machine
Power loss is increased because of higher voltage output of secondary winding
The voltage deviation of zero load and full load is too large , voltage regulating rate is low
The rising of voltage of generating set is high after capacitive load
Check output voltage or adjust AVR, or replace AVR
Correct wiring
Check loading, decrease load; check the voltage of AVR secondary winding, or replace AVR
Check AVR and the temperature of electric machine for high temperature, or replace electric machine or AVR
Check that the voltage of secondary winding should not above 140 V
Check that the voltage of main winding should be above 6 V without AVR in electric machine
Check exciting output voltage of AVR or adjust AVR, or replace AVR
Replace AVR
Check output voltage or adjust AVR, or replace AVR
Fault
Remedy:
Fault of intelligent
control panel
1. No display on screen.
2. Display wrong code.
3. Can not start.
Check 12V power supply of generating set
and check wiring for loosening or replace
display screen.
