Key Features:
- High-Voltage Isolation – Galvanic separation between excitation equipment and control logic.
- Real-Time Monitoring – Tracks generator field voltage/current with <1ms latency.
- Fault Detection – Detects field ground faults, over/under-excitation.
- Redundant Inputs – Dual-channel measurement for critical signals (voting logic).
- Trip Relay Outputs – Hardwired contacts for immediate excitation system shutdown.
- Auto-Calibration – Self-diagnostic routines during startup.
Primary Function & Purpose:
Acts as a secure interface between turbine control and generator excitation systems, ensuring:
- Precise voltage regulation via Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) commands.
- Protection against field winding overcurrent/overvoltage.
- Synchronization of generator output with grid frequency.
Typical Applications:
- Generator Excitation Control – Adjusts field current to maintain terminal voltage.
- Protective Relaying – Triggers field breakers during faults (loss-of-field, overfluxing).
- Power Factor Regulation – Manages reactive power (VAR) output.
- Black-Start Support – Controls excitation during grid restoration.
Application Fields:
Critical for grid stability in:
- Power Plants: Gas/steam turbine generators, hydroelectric stations.
- Industrial Cogeneration: Paper mills, chemical plants with self-generation.
- Offshore Platforms: Offshore wind farm collector substations.
- Data Centers: Backup generator excitation management.
