Tech Requirements Flashcards
Was there any change in frequency versus time requirements from the 2006 code and 2024 code?
No
Frequency range for continuous operation and rated output/pf.
By Grid Code - 49-51 Hz
NC RfG requires down to 47.5 for 30 min
2% of 50 Hz
1 Hz
How do the Grid Code frequency requirements for STG compare to WEC’s?
Much more stringent than WEC’s.
What if the required power factor profile called?
Q over Pmax versus voltage curve
What Section is “Technical requirements and recommendations for equipment….”
3.3
What is active power primary control?
Normal governor load-frequency control.
What is the function of active power tertiary control?
To control various generators in the best possible way, in terms of economic considerations.
What is the function of active power secondary control?
To restore the SYSTEM FREQUENCY to its set-point value.
How fast is primary control?
a few seconds
After a frequency disturbance, is the frequency of the system returned to normal?
No. The frequency stabilizes but differs from the frequency set-point because of the DROOP OF THE GENERATORS.
How fast is secondary control?
15 to 30 seconds
How is secondary control achieved?
Generally automatic
How is tertiary control achieved?
Central dispatch
What is the range for required primary control.
± 5% of Pmax
