Abstract
A method of detecting a parallel source condition includes calculating a reactive power, comparing the reactive power to a predetermined threshold, and determining a parallel source condition in response to the reactive power exceeding the predetermined threshold.
Claims14
A method of detecting a parallel source condition comprising:
- calculating a reactive power;
- comparing the reactive power to a predetermined threshold;
- and
- determining a parallel source condition in response to the reactive power exceeding the predetermined threshold.
1 more element
A parallel source condition detection system comprising:
- a first generator coupled to a load;
- a second generator coupled to the load;
- a controller operable to determine a reactive power associated with at least one of the first generator and the second generator, to compare the reactive power to a predetermined threshold, and to determine a parallel source condition in response to the reactive power exceeding the predetermined threshold.
