Introduction
Synchronization Breaker logic FAQ Exercise

The easYgen-3200 is able to perform synchronization of the generator across the generator circuit breaker to a common bus as well as synchronizing the common bus to a utility across the mains circuit breaker. It is possible to configure the easYgen-3200 for either slip or phase matching synchronization and the acceptable breaker closure window. By adding SPM-D/10 synchronizers to the system, up to four generator common busses and three tie breakers may be operated.

Formula for calculating phase angle at closing command Phase angle = 360o * (Frequency differential) * (breaker closing time)

Example: Phase angle = 360o * (0.3 Hz) * (0.2 sec) = 21.6

Breaker logic FAQ Exercise

Active synchronization is performed. Bias signals to the governor and voltage regulator are active and breaker close commands are issued. Passive synchronization performed. Bias signals to the governor and voltage regulator are not active but breaker close commands are issued. Active synchronization is simulated. Bias signals to the governor and voltage regulator are active but breaker close commands are not issued. The synchronization can be disabled

Exercise
Introduction Synchronization Breaker logic FAQ

Configure the following application:

1. You are commissioning an emergency standby generator for a manufacturing plant. Select a breaker logic for the test run where the generator assumes the entire plant load and then separates from the utility. The test mode must be initiated via a discrete input.
A second breaker logic mode is desired where the generator assumes the entire plant load but still remains paralleled with the utility.
