NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document
PPS-Generators
Hz), the frequency detector shall lockout the circuit breaker
closing relay and simultaneously generate a DC voltage
proportional to the frequency difference to cause the engine
governor to bring the frequency within the preset acceptable
limit. When the oncoming engine generator frequency is within
the acceptable limit, the lockout shall be removed.
When the voltage and frequency limits are satisfied, and the
relative phase angle between the oncoming unit and the bus
reduces to 5 degrees approaching zero degrees, the synchronizer
shall hold (phase lock) the generator output in synchronism with
the bus, the circuit breaker closing relay shall close to initiate
breaker closing and paralleling. DC control of the governor and
voltage control shall be terminated simultaneously with breaker
closure. The complete system shall function in such a manner as
to insure that the maximum relative phase angle at the instant of
paralleling does not exceed 5 electrical degrees.
6) Control Circuit Status Indicators
Color-coded, light-emitting diodes shall be provided on the
generator sensing panel to indicate the control circuit status of the
following conditions:
DC Input Power On Red Color
Generator voltage and
frequency acceptable Green Color
Synchronizer Energized Green Color
Selector Relay On Yellow Color
Reverse power trip
setting exceeded Yellow Color
Generator Voltage Too High Red Color
Generator Voltage Too Low Red Color
Synchronizing Output Relay On Yellow Color
Reverse Power Trip Setting
Exceed for 2.0 sec; RPR
Latched On Red Color
