Field flashing
For start up DC excitation is fed to the field from external source like
station battery or rectified AC from station Ac supply .
Filed flashing is used to build up voltage up to 30 %.
From 30 to 70 % both flashing and regulation remains in circuit.
70 % above flashing gets cut-off

AVR
There are two independent control systems
1. Auto control
2. Manual control
The control is effected on the 3 phase output of the pilot
exciter and provides a variable d.c. input to the main exciter
46
AVR
The main components of the voltage Regulator are two closed
loop control systems each followed by separate gate control unit
and thyristor set and de excitation equipment
Control system 1 for automatic generator voltage control
(AUTO) comprises the following
47
AVR
Generator voltage control
The output quantity of this control is the set point for a following.
48
AVR
This equipment acts on to the output of the generator voltage,
control, limiting the set point for the above excitation current
regulator. The stationary value of this limitation determines the
maximum possible excitation current set-point (field forcing
limitation);
Limiter for the under-excited range (under excitation limiter),
Delayed limiter for the overexcited range (over excitation limiter)
49
AVR
In the under excitation range, the under
excitation ensures that the minimum excitation
required for stable parallel operation of the
generator with the system is available and that
the under -excited reactive power is limited
accordingly
50
AVR
The set-point adjuster of the excitation current
regulator for manual is tracked automatically (followup control) so that, in the event of faults, change over
to the manual control system is possible without delay
Automatic change over is initiated by some special
fault condition. Correct operation of the follow-up
control circuit is monitored and can be observed on a
matching instrument in the control room. This
instrument can also be used for manual matching.

V/F limiter
Also known as over fluxing limiter
It is the protection function for the GT
V/F ratio , eddy current , the local eddy current causes
thermal over loading of GT
In DVR mode V/F ratio is continuously monitors the limit
violation
In case V/F ratio crosses the limit characteristic, the upper limit
as the effective AVR set point is reduced as a function of V/F
ratio
This limiter is used when it is required to keep the unit operating
even in case of substantial frequency drops , for instance in
order to prevent complete breakdown of the system, a V/F
limiter is used to lower the voltage proportional with frequency
