In the light of the above-mentioned examples t

the 0.4 sec. If ∆ϕ is set to ±10° the CSQ-3 will calculate that there is space for t
this setting the synchronising error will be identical with the synchronising error in
example 1 (-2.8°) as the breaker closing time is the same (0.2 sec.). But the max. ∆f
can now only be 0.138Hz and not, as in example 1, 0.277Hz. The max. slip frequency
(∆f) could also be controlled by setting ∆ϕ differently. If ∆ϕ was set to ±5° instead of
±10° the max. ∆f would be 0.138Hz at t
the actual synchronising error will be +2.2°. Please notice that the breaker now closes
2.2° after top and not, as in example 1, 2.8° before top. The choise of setting must be
based on the knowledge of the actual installation in which the CSQ-3 is applied. But
