Three-phase synchronous generators
In addition to the basic experiments on three-phase synchronous generators, the experiments in this area also
cover manually-operated and automatic synchronisation circuits as well as automatic power factor control (cosphi control) and power control. For that reason, this module can be used to simulate both on-grid and off-grid
power plant operation. Furthermore, generators need effective protection against internal and external faults. The
deployment of a variety of protective equipment is a prerequisite for this.

EGP Generator protection
EGP Generator protection
Effective protection of generators against internal and external faults requires that a wide variety of protective
devices be deployed.
Generator differential protection covers the internal faults like short-circuit fault, interturn and interwinding faults
or phase-earth-phase faults and serves as the primary protection.
The time overcurrent protection constitutes the reserve protection for the generator and can also be used for the
detection of external faults, such as short circuits and overload, for example. Earth-fault occurrences are
detected with the stator-earth fault protection. The investigation of reverse power and unbalanced load protection
as well as overvoltage/undervoltage protection concludes the experiment series titled “EGP“ on generator
protection.

The areas of electrical machines, power electronics and drive
technology pose particular problems for measuring instruments. In
addition to high-performance overload protection, the acquisition of
measurement values must be performed accurately independently of
the curve's shape. The universal measuring device has been
designed particularly to satisfy these requirements. It can
simultaneously replace as many as four different measuring
instruments – constituting a current/voltmeter, power and phaseangle meter all in one. The graphic display allows for both student as
well demonstration experiments. The VI Starter software included
allows for visualisation of measurements on a PC.
