Electrical Power Controls and Monitoring Generator Drive
Each engine driven generator is connected to its engine through a generator drive unit. Each generator drive is a self-contained unit consisting of an oil supply, cooler, instrumentation and disconnect device which provides for complete isolation of the generator in the event of a malfunction.
Operating conditions of the generator drive can be observed on the generator drive oil temperature indicator. Oil temperature is measured as it enters and leaves the generator drive. Temperature of oil entering the generator is indicated on the IN scale. Temperature differential between outlet and inlet is indicated as RISE - (out temperature minus in temperature). During normal operation, the oil temperature rise should be less than 20 deg. C. Readings above 20 deg. C indicate excessive generator load or poor condition of the drive and are used by maintenance in troubleshooting drive problems.
The amber HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE light illuminates when oil temperature in the internal oil tank exceeds limitations. The amber LOW OIL PRESSURE light illuminates when oil pressure is below the operating limit. When the generator has been disconnected, the LOW OIL PRESSURE light will be on, and the HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE light remains on until the oil is cooled.
A generator drive disconnect switch is installed. This switch disconnects the generator from the engine in the event of a generator drive malfunction. Reactivation of the generator may be accomplished only on the ground by maintenance personnel.
AC Voltmeter and Frequency Meter
AC voltage and frequency may be read on the AC voltmeter and frequency meter
for standby power, ground power, generator No. 1, APU generator, generator No.
2 and the static inverter. Frequency is indicated only when the generator is
electrically excited. The voltage regulator automatically controls the generator
output voltage.
Current readings for the two engine generators and the APU generator may be
read on the AC ammeter.
The TEST position is used by maintenance and connects the voltage and
frequency meter to the power systems test module for selection of additional
reading points.
