Syncronising

1) Synchronizing electrical sources requires matching their voltage, frequency, and phase sequence to prevent damage when connecting them. 2) The key requirements for synchronization are equal voltages and frequencies between sources, having the same phase sequence, and sources being in synchronism as indicated by a synchroscope. 3) Synchronization devices used include voltmeters, frequency meters, synchroscopes, auto-synchronizers, and programmable logic controllers to facilitate matching sources prior to closing a circuit breaker to connect them.

Synchronising

G.K.Thayanithy
Synchronising
A simple analogy

At the instance of opening the valve in hydraulic


circuit if the pressure difference across both sides
of the valve is ZERO;
Fluid will not flow through it after opening.
P

At the instance of connecting two different sources,


if the potential difference between them is ZERO
Current will not flow in between two sources
when they are paralleled.

Recommended settings for synchroscope

Difference in Voltage V 5%
Difference in Phase Angle 10 deg

Synchronising

Control system requirement

Compare magnitude & frequency and indicate


their relative status
Facilitate adjustment of voltage & frequency
Check for synchronism
Facilitate synchronising breaker closure
Isolate synchronising systems after breaker closure

GKT/syncronising/2008
Synchronising

Operational requirement

Maintain speed & voltage higher to prevent


reverse power & reverse kVAR trip.
Neutral isolator condition to be checked.
(For medium or low resistance grounding Neutral of any one
machine should be kept closed.
This precaution is taken to prevent earth fault relay operation
due to circulating currents)
It may be necessary to float all DG neutrals
during grid parallel operation.

Synchronising First Time!


Employ Phasing out techniques - using following.
A. On secondary side of PT
Phase Sequence Indicator
Check phase sequence of existing source on
its PT
Switch on incomer breaker on Dead Bus &
check phase sequence on the same Bus PT.
Multimeter
Check Voltage across PT reference of two
sources while both PTs have same primary
reference.

GKT/syncronising/2008
Synchronising

Lamp method / Analog Multimeter


To be used for checking the wiring between
check synch relay & the point where
phasesequence & voltage reference have been
checked.

B. On HT side
HT phasing probes
By starting an AC motor whose direction of
rotation is already confirmed with an existing source.
