Before starting Following preliminary actions Mains Mains should be carried out before starting Transformer Maintenance! Sensing Sensing 1. Adjust following parameter settings • Parameter 1425: Turn OFF ROCOF. • Parameter 1434: Turn OFF Vector jump. • Parameter 6001/6011: Check Frequency from mains and adjust Nominal setting of the generator towards it.
Transformer maintenance procedure OFF status TM-box Connect Function select Power The ‘Function select’ switch is in the OFF position. mains Stop Deload generator Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow 1. Manually connect the power cables from the generator to the busbar.
Start generator TM-box Connect Function select Power Turn the ‘Function select’ switch to Start generator. mains Stop Deload generator Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow 1. The generator starts up. 2. When the generator is running (shown on TM-box display), make sure that voltage and frequency are This is indicated by the U/F OK LED (7) on the TM- box display.
Synchronise the generator TM-box Connect Function select Power Turn the ‘Function select’ switch to Generator mains synchronisation. Stop Deload generator Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow 1. The generator is forced to make a dynamic synchronisation to the Mains and closes the generator breaker.
Deload Mains TM-box Connect Function select Power Turn the ‘Function select’ switch to Deload mains for mains load take over. Stop Deload generator Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow 1. Adjust the generator power by means of the ‘Power switch’.
Island operation TM-box Connect Function select Power Turn the ‘Function select’ switch to Island as quickly as mains Stop possible to prevent frequency variation due to load Deload generator changes. Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow 1.
Back synchronisation to the Mains Flow Connect the voltage measurement line between the TM- box and the mains connection point (fuses/breaker). Do not forget to check the phase sequence of these measuring cables. See also section 6 for the difference between three phase and single phase measurement.

Deload the generator TM-box Turn the ‘Function select’ switch to Deload generator. Connect Function select Power mains Stop Deload generator Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow The generator deloads and opens the generator breaker. The speed of deload can be selected in parameter 2620 where the ramp down %/s can be adjusted.
Stop the generator TM-box Turn the ‘Function select’ switch to Stop to stop the Connect Function select Power mains generator. Stop Deload generator Start generator Generator Synchronisation to mains synchronisation Deload mains Island Flow 1. After the cooldown time, set by the operator, the generator will stop automatically.
5.10 Settings to increase stability 5.10.1 PID regulation To fine-tune synchronisation when switching back to the Mains, it is recommended to adjust PID regulation. To improve stability of the active power regulation following parameters can be used/adjusted: 2530 Power PID 2531 Kp Proportional 2532...
5.10.2 Power factor settings To approach the actual power factor measured at the Mains as close as possible, adjust parameters 7051 and 7052. Parameter 7051 will be adjusted by the power button on the TM-box, so no adjustments are to be made on the display Parameter 7052 is to be set equally to the measured mains power factor.
This can only be done if the neutral of the generator When all three phases are used to measure the and the transformer are correctly connected, so the voltage, the Qc4003™ will automatically run a phase common measurement point is the same. sequence check.
