🔄 synchronization methods

Manual · Semi-Auto · Automatic · Dead Bus

Synchronization methods

  • Manual Synchronization – operator adjusts speed (governor) & voltage (AVR), observes sync-scope/lamps, closes breaker manually
  • Semi-Automatic Synchronization – auto matching of voltage & frequency, manual breaker close
  • Automatic Synchronization – fully automatic: speed/voltage matching & breaker close command by auto-sync unit
  • Dead Bus Synchronization – first generator closing onto dead bus (no sync check)
  • Live Bus Synchronization – synchronizing to an energized bus with sync check supervision
  • Closed Bus Transfer (Make-Before-Break) – paralleling then opening source, no break
  • Open Bus Transfer (Break-Before-Make) – fast sync after opening source
  • Isochronous Synchronization – speed matching at exact frequency
  • Droop Synchronization – speed droop mode for parallel operation
