🔍 Key Concepts

• Load sharing between AC generators running in parallel • Difference between real power (kW) and reactive power (kVAR) control • Roles of governors vs voltage regulators in generator control

💭 Think About

• When two AC generators are operating in parallel, which component is responsible for matching their mechanical input power so that the real power (kW) load is shared? • Which devices mainly affect voltage and reactive power, and which affect speed/frequency and real power? • Think about what happens if one generator starts taking too much load—what has to change physically to balance the load?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options primarily control voltage and reactive power (kVAR) rather than real power (kW). • Identify which option directly adjusts prime mover speed and torque, affecting frequency and kW sharing. • Confirm which device is a protective device used when power flow reverses, rather than a normal load‑sharing controller.
