2. Engine–generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine–generator

   In addition to the engine and generator, engine–generators generally include a fuel supply, a constant engine speed regulator (governor) in diesel and a generator voltage regulator, cooling and exhaust systems, and lubrication system. Units larger than about 1 kW rating often have a battery and electric starter motor; very large units may ...

3. Droop speed control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droop_speed_control

   Droop speed control is a control mode used for AC electrical power generators, whereby the power output of a generator reduces as the line frequency increases. It is commonly used as the speed control mode of the governor of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid.

4. Induction generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

   At synchronous speed of 1800 RPM, generator will produce no power. When the driving speed is increased to 1860 RPM (typical example), full output power is produced. If the prime mover is unable to produce enough power to fully drive the generator, speed will remain somewhere between 1800 and 1860 RPM range.

5. Nameplate capacity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nameplate_capacity

   Nameplate capacity, also known as the rated capacity, nominal capacity, installed capacity, maximum effect or gross capacity, [1] is the intended full-load sustained output of a facility such as a power station, [2] [3] electric generator, a chemical plant, [4] fuel plant, mine, [5] metal refinery, [6] and many others. Nameplate capacity is the ...

6. Automatic generation control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_generation_control

   An electrical grid may have many types of generators and loads; generators must be controlled to maintain stable operation of the system. In an electric power system, automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load. Since a power ...

7. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

   The ability of different components in a power system to perform effectively depends on the system's strength, which measures the system variables' sensitivity to disturbances. The short circuit ratio (SCR) is an indicator of the strength of a network bus about the rated power of a device and is frequently used as a measure of system strength.
