What are the problems in station operation due to grid under frequency?

1 Answer

Answer :

a) Turbine having under frequency limitation, house load happen if < 48 Hz

b) Due to under frequency PHT flow reduces, therefore reactor power reduces, generator power reduces

c) If frequency is less than 48 Hz DG cannot be synchronised to grid, therefore DG kept on isolation running

d) GT overfluxing.
