SECTION 2 : GENERAL DESCRIPTION
2.1
EA341 is a two phase sensed Automatic Voltage
Regulator and forms part of the excitation system
for a brush-less generator. Excitation power is
derived from a three-phase permanent magnet
generator (PMG), to isolate the AVR control
circuits from the effects of nonlinear loads and to
reduce radio frequency interference on the
generator terminals. Sustained generator short
circuit current is another feature of the PMG
system.
2.2
The AVR senses the voltage in the main
generator winding and controls the power fed to
the exciter stator and hence the main rotor to
maintain the generator output voltage within the
specified limits, compensating for load, speed,
temperature and power factor of the generator.
2.3
Soft start circuitry is included to provide a smooth
controlled build up of generator output voltage.
