Inductance & Capacitance E P G --II-- Inductance & Capacitance There are two kinds of reactance: inductive and capacitive. Inductive reactance causes the current to lag the voltage. Capacitive reactance causes the current to lead the voltage. electrons Magnetic Field Current Voltage Voltage Current + + _ _ MALAGA

Preparing the SPEED for parallel operation in droop situation E P G --II-- Preparing the SPEED for parallel operation in droop situation The sets to be paralleled should be operated for at least one hour to ensure stable temperatures while adjustments are made. Use the same Multimeter for all measurements. Take care of the speed first? - Turn Voltage droop and voltage gain to zero position. - Turn Speed droop to zero position. - Run engine with no load at high idle (rated speed + droop%). - Apply full load, adjust for rated speed with the speed. droop pot. MALAGA
Preparing the VOLTAGE for parallel operation E P G --II-- Preparing the VOLTAGE for parallel operation - Run engine with no load at high idle (rated speed + droop%). - Adjust the system voltage with LEVEL pot. - Apply full load , verify the speed , adjust the voltage util it is equal to the no load voltage with the GAIN pot. When speed and voltage setting are correct put units in parallel and apply the load. Check the output current of every generator. The sum of individual generator amp should not be more then 10% over the load amp. MALAGA
