  1. Generator Reactive Capabiltiy Verification By Component Testing Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  2. Problem – Contingency Capability • In some special cases, the full VAR capability of a generator is needed for contingency conditions, not normal conditions. • In these cases, creating the conditions that would require the generator’s full VAR output would be dangerous. • The ISO and Satellites will intentionally not create such conditions. Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  3. Normal Conditions Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  4. VAR Test Conditions Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  5. VAR Test Conditions:Post Contingency Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  6. Solution – Component Certification • Provide these special case generators with an alternative to actual VAR testing. • One alternative could be to require certification of the major components of the generator’s VAR capability: • Synchronous machine • Cooling system • Excitation system • Protection systems • … Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  7. Requirements • Rigorous • Timely • Subject to audit • Accountable • Professional Engineers stamp? Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  8. Next Step • Identify Special Cases • Develop Component Test Requirements Presented to the RC 03/4/03

  9. Questions ? Presented to the RC 03/4/03
