Generator Load Sensor

The Generator Load Sensor is used to provide droop and isochronous load sharing for generator applications which use Woodward 701, EPG, and 2301A speed controls. It has an SPM-A synchronizer input and shares load with all Woodward load sensors and load sharing and speed controls.

The Generator Load Sensor receives input from current transformers (CTs) and potential transformers (PTs), to calculate power from the generator, assuming constant voltage. It generates an output which biases the speed reference of the speed control. The Generator Load Sensor uses paralleling lines to ensure proportional load sharing when generators are isochronously paralleled.
