    Reverse energising the stepdown transformer for Step up purpose ????

    You will probably not face with inrush current. How will you make the synchronization with the grid? If from LV side, than transformer will be already live with grid voltage from HV side. If you will make the synchronization from the HV side, than you may start the generator when the genset...

    Reverse energising the stepdown transformer for Step up purpose ????

    You can use your transformer as a step up transformer. I assume that low voltage side of your transformer is star and high voltage side is delta connected. Than rraghunath's comment should be considered. Depending on your design criterias, earth reference may be required on the 11 kV side. You...

    Intermittent tripping over Merlin Gerin Masterpact circuit breaker

    Are you sure the thermal trip adjustment was done properly? Once I had the same problem at site. We have several trips until we recognise the thermal overload setting was adjusted at only 40%.

    Regulating Real Power

    You can not control the power flow with the given conditions. Connection to the grid should be done at only 1 place.

    AVR V/Hz

    Load acceptance of the diesel engine is a major factor in diesel generator selection. Direct on line starting motors are sometimes very difficult for the diesel engine to maintain the engine speed which directly effects the bus frequency. When the diesel engine speed reduces due to the large...
