Table 23 - Compensation Modes - Droop
Symptom
Most Likely Cause
Diagnostic Action
Corrective Action
Voltage does not change with
changes in reactive load while not
connected to the grid
Droop not selected/active
Check tag
Droop_Ened
If not active, check/correct logic for
mode selection
Cross current mode is
enabled/selected
Check
Droop_CCCT_Select
tag
If active, check/correct logic for
mode selection
Metering error
See
troubleshooting
See
troubleshooting
Reactive power does not change
with adjustments to the voltage
setpoint while connected to the grid
Droop not selected/active
Check tag
Droop_Ened
If not active, check/correct logic for
mode selection
PF or VAR control enabled/selected
Check tag
PF_VAR_Control
If active, check/correct logic for
mode selection
Metering error
See
troubleshooting
See
troubleshooting
Voltage and / or reactive load is
unstable when operating in droop
AVR Gains misadjusted
Check voltage stability when
operating isolated from load and if
possible in constant voltage control
Calculate/correct AVR gains if
necessary
Metering error

Table 24 - Compensation Modes - Cross Current
Symptom
Most Likely Cause
Diagnostic Action
Corrective Action
VARs share but not equally; even
when the system load changes
Gain mis-adjustment
Check CCCT Gain
Correct as required
CT or input impedance mismatch
Verify CT selection and measure
input impedance to each AVR
Correct or replace CTs as required.
Add resistors as required to match
AVR input resistance
VARs do not share at all and when a
voltage adjust is made, nothing
happens
Cross current mode is not
enabled/selected
Check
Droop_CCCT_Select
tag
If not active, check/correct logic for
mode selection
Gain misadjustment
Check CCCT Gain
Correct as required
Wiring error
Measure voltage at ID+/- terminal
and adjust reactive power/voltage
Correct wiring as required if voltage
signal from CCCT circuit is not
observed
