We've had units that were at or near a temperature or pressure limit(er) and a faulty sensor, thermocouple, etc was causing the PID control and subsequently the fuel valve to start hunting.
Our 13.8kV, 30MVA generator has a neutral HRG (single phase transformer w/ resistor on secondary) that is designed to allow 5A (primary) on the generator neutral during the first phase-ground fault.
Our end user on a new install is advising that their system has a nominal continuous value of...
I have an old turbine control system that uses black boxes for temperature and speed control. I'm trying to get the speed (passive Mag pick-up) and temperature signals (Type K Thermocouple) in to a PLC for monitoring. I think piggy backing off the Mag pick and taking the signal into a high...
I am looking for a direct replacement of an older EM Bemac II synchronous generator. Anyone know where I might find such an animal, aside from OEM:
4160V, Wye-connected
750-800kW
60Hz, 1800rpm
Frame 732
Two-bearing
Thank you in advance...
Anyone know what the clearance requirements are for a 15kV (13.8kV nom) generator neutral bar? This is the neutral bar within the generator terminal box and would typically have leads T2, T4, T6 landed on it.
Is there any code requirement or industry standard I could refer to? Live phase...
I have the opportunity to install qty (3) 333kVA single phase transformers (pole-mount, oil filled) or qty (1) 1000kVA 3-phase transformer (pad-mount, oil filled).
Not considering any other factors (installation, space, etc.) which set up would be most electrically efficient at full load? Is...
I've inherited a project with an existing standby generator, 2.5MW, 480V, wye connected which feeds an existing 480/11kV Wye-Delta GSU transformer. In this case the wye connected generator is connected to the wye windings on the primary of the transformer. Wye's are solidly grounded. Service...
Anybody have an idea what the current cost is for a GE LMS100PA genset package is? Just looking for an idea of the package, and GE-supplied auxiliaries, not necessarily install or other EPC costs.

I have RSLogix500 running for months on my PC and now I get an error message and it's asking me for Security Login username and password. Never had to do this before.
Strange thing is, I can see my proper activation in the Factory Talk Activation Manager. I have no idea what this username...
Anyone with experience working the natural gas plants in Saudi Arabia? I need to know the sales gas composition/specs for natural gas supplied to their power plants.
Thank you

I have an application where my existing power control room runs about 250kVA of load at 480V, 3P3W, 60Hz. This PCR will be shipped to a 400V, 50Hz country. My initial solution was to use a motor-generator set (50Hz motor turning a 60Hz Generator) due to its simplicity, few parts, and pure...
