What are the 5 generators frequency directly related to? And when is 400 hz achieved?
|
Directly related to RPM of respective engine(or APU). 400 hz = 100% RPM
|
|
What do GCPs automatically control and connect?
|
They control AC switching and distribution, and connect operating AC power sources to the AC buses.
|
|
What does the Frequency Sensitive Relay (FSR) do?
|
Under frequency protection. For example it removes generator from AC buses during LSGI.
|
|
What voltage does the VR maintain and how?
|
115 Vac. By varying the generator excitation field current.
|
|
Where is the Electrical Control and Supply Rack(ESCR), and what components does it hold?
|
Under the flight station. Contains = GCP(5), VR(5), Bearing Failure Relays (5)
|
|
Why does the generator out light come on?
|
1. Generator Line Contactor(GCL) is de-energized. 2. LSGI 3. Malfunction in generating system.
|
|
What does the Generator Disconnect Switch do? What powers it?
|
Essential DC. Mechanically disconnects the engine gear box, disconnector rotor, and generator rotor.
|
|
What does the DISC FIRED Test light indicate?
|
. If DISC FIRED illuminates during TEST it means the fusable element is not melted
|
|
What are the generators rated at?
|
40 KVA (40,000 volt/amperes)
120 208 VAC * Actual rated by VR = 115-200 VAC |
|
What does the AC loadmeter indicate?
|
Percent of Phase Load from generator. However, AC bus loads must be considered for true bus load.
|
|
At 100% engine rpm, how many Hertz does the AC generator produce? And, what is the generator rotor rpm at 100% engine rpm?
|
400 Hz , 6000 rpm
|
