Abstract

Synchronization of two alternators is very important process at generating station. Synchronization is done to connect more alternator's parallel to achieve the high demand of power. For this process, synchroscope method is frequently used. Synchroscope is a device which shows the differences of frequency and phase angle between two powers by deflecting pointer clockwise and anticlockwise. We also required additional instruments for measuring frequency and voltage. The intention of this paper is to propose the methodology of a single device which shows the required parameters on single display and also offers the automatic synchronization of alternators. It is fast, cost effective and precise to be used for monitoring.

Keywords
