    Parallel operation of alternator.

    • The operation of alternator in parallel with


    another alternator or with common bus-bars is
    known as synchronizing.
    • The alternator is connected to a live system of
    constant voltage and constant frequency.
    • The alternator which it is connected to has lots
    of alternator connected to the live system
    somewhere. In that case, alternator (incoming
    line) is said to be connected to infinite bus
    bars.

    Conditions for synchronization

    1. The terminal voltage of incoming alternator


    and reference bus bar must be same.
    2. The frequency should be also same.
    3. The phase sequence of the alternator and
    reference bus should be same.
    Condition (1) is indicated by voltmeter.
    Condition (2) and (3) are indicated by
    synchronizing lamps.

    Synchronizing of alternators

    (a) Single-phase
    alternators-suppose
    machine 2 is to be
    Dark period
    synchronized with the bus
    bar to which machine 1 is
    already connected.
    -L1 and L2 are used for
    synchronization- this lamp is called
    synchronizing lamp. bright period
    -Speed of machine 2 is bought such a
    way that it’s frequency matches with
    machine 1.

    Synchronizing of alternators

    (a) Single-phase
    alternators
    -If there is frequency difference, there
    will also be phase difference.

    -Though both the machines has same


    magnitude, due to difference in
    frequency, resultant voltage will be
    sometimes maximum and sometimes
    minimum.
    -due to change in resultant voltage The dark lamp indicates the two
    level, current flow will also be voltages are out of phase, which
    interrupted, and lamp will be flickering. indicates no resultant current flow.
    The frequency of flickering will be f2-f1
