What will happen if ESF DG paralled with grid in isochronous mode?
Will not have any speed droop characteristics.
Will try to maintain constant speed regardless of the load on the generator.
Will become overloaded and cause damage and/or trip.
OR
It will shed all load and trip the output breaker on reverse power.
