  • Patent number: 5808449
    Abstract: A method for detecting islanding operation of a rotating-machine type dispersed generator. The dispersed generator is interconnected with a main electric source through a circuit breaker to constitute an electric power system. The estimating method is implemented as follows: (a) changing electric power of the electric power system; (b) detecting frequency component of the electric power; and (c) deciding that an islanding operation of the dispersed generator is executed if the change of the frequency component becomes greater than a predetermined value. With this method, it becomes possible to detect the islanding operation of the dispersed generator even if the power flow at the interconnecting circuit breaker is generally zero.

  • Patent number: 4343027
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a grounding protective relay which compensates for zero phase circulation current between lines and zero phase vertical voltage drops generated by induction in a common suspension multiline system. The grounding protective relay comprises, substantially, a current detector which detects the inter-line differential currents, a filter which eliminates the positive phase component from the inter-line differential current of each pair of phases, calculating sections calculate the zero phase component, the ratio of the magnitudes and the phase difference, an grounded phase detector, and a selection section which selects, according to the phase which is grounded, a deriveration result from a calculating section, characterized in that, when a grounded fault occurs, the zero phase circulation current is selected and is compensated.

  • Patent number: 4245182
    Abstract: A field control apparatus for a generator having a field winding comprises a terminal voltage control unit for controlling a field current of the generator in accordance with a difference between a terminal voltage signal of the generator and a reference voltage signal, which control unit has at least one of a line drop compensation function, an under-excitation limitation function, an over-excitation limitation function, a power factor regulation function, an armature winding over-current compensation function and a cross-current compensation function. The field control apparatus includes a detector as a common signal source for detecting active power and reactive power components at an output terminal of the generator and means responsive to the output of the detector for performing scalar operation in accordance with a function of the added compensation/control function described above.

  • Patent number: 4129818
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for carrying out normal stop of a synchronous generator in an advantageous manner without use of a field breaker. The apparatus comprises a six-phase thyristor converter for controlling field excitation of the synchronous generator in dependence upon terminal voltage thereof, which converter exhibits not only a forward conversion function (power rectifier) but also backward conversion function (power inverter). When a generator operation stop command is produced, the operation of the converter in power rectifier mode is changed over to power inverter mode.
