No, we are not having any equipment problems its just a level of knowledge thing. See we train on how to operate our equipment but very little on how it works. That last question about the reverse power relay was a real eye opener. Once I understood that pf could be represented on a graph...
We have a Wattmeter that uses the Hall effect to take the instantaneous value of voltage and current and sends it to a DC meter. What im wondering is if this is actually reading KW or just a close approximation.
P = 3^.5 * I * V * pf. So if we have 2 generators in parallel and adjust the...
Ok so let me see if i understand this correctly: Lets say when the generator is generating then voltage is leading current by a PF of .98. in this situation current positive peak and voltage positive peak are preaty close to each other because when voltage is positive then current is trying to...
I am trying to understand the reverse power relays to our steam driven generators. This is a discription of the device from the book:
"Potential signal flows through the top coil over a rotatable disc and transformer action induces a circulating current in the disc. Current signal flows...
