The LSM200 Series controllers provide Isochronous load sharing. These multifunction
load sharing and power control modules support GAC speed control units on generator
set applications requiring isochronous paralleling and for mains power control.
Engine generator sets with isochronous speed control units maintain the requested
speed very precisely. If synchronous generators are electrically paralleled to increase
the total generated power capability, a system to apportion the load is required.
Even the finest electric governors have minor frequency differences among units to be
paralleled, which would cause power variations. In this case, one generator set would
continuously increase the power it produces, while the other sets would decrease the
power they produce.
This condition eventually leads to motorizing one or more generator/ engines. The load
sharing system continuously adjusts the governor speed settings so that no average power difference exists The generators are
locked together through electrical synchronizing torques acting as a tightly connected gear drive. The line current measurements
are usually taken from current transformers in the equipment such as those used for ammeter circuits.

•
24 V DC
