Introduction
The connection of embedded generating systems to the distribution network may impact on distribution utilities’ ability to regulate network voltages. For this reason, distribution utilities require embedded generating systems to consider voltage, power factor and reactive power control system as described below.
- Voltage droop control which varies by a fixed percentage to manage network stability.
- Operate at an agreed power factor such that voltage variations are maintained within prescribed limits.
- Control reactive power output, within their capability, to maintain the connection point voltage to anagreed target.Evaluate the ideal voltage control and methodology for large embedded generators categories connected to the distribution network.
- >30kVA & ≤200kVA (NER Chapter 5A assessment)
- >200kVA & <5MVA (NER Chapter 5A assessment)
- >5MVA (NER Chapter 5 assessment) (optional scope)
