what is the difference between synchronization and paralleling?

Answer / tareq harb
synchronizing is making phase, voltage & frequency the same
or with small difference between generators.
paralleling is sharing the load among all this generators.
so synchronizing is done before closing the ckt breaker but
after closing it parlleling process starts and all above
mentioned parametrs stuck together.

Answer / iamdon
Synchronization (in the context of electrical engineering)
is the process of attaining exact co-ordination(Relative
should be zero) between two or more, similar time varying
quantitites.The quantities involved must has same rate of
change.Synchronization is a global concept(exists through
out the system).
Paralleling is the process of placing more than one systems
aganist same condition to achieve common goal.In some cases
(parallel operation of alternators,parallel operation of
transformers etc.)synchronizion is must for paralleling
where as in some cases(Paralleling loads across a supply
etc.) in is not must for loads to be synchronized.
Paralleling is a local concept(Prevaling at few places and
these places are independent with each other)

Answer / shaibal saha
Any two or more systems that has parameter(such as
frequence,phase etc.) transfer function of time dependance,
when coupled to achieve output or input simultaneously
called synchronisation contrary to same phenomena when
parameters have no time dependance called paralleling.

parallel
any two or more alternator connected to grid and share a common load its called a parallel operation.
synchronizing
how to connect to grid (depend a voltage,frequency,phase sequence)a alternator is called a synchronizing operation.

Answer / safeer ahmad
When two or more machine having same voltage,current and
frequency on working condition its called synchronism
and when we want to share the load two ore more machines in
parallel its called paralleling..............

Answer / pavan kumar
parlleling and sychronization are very similar that when two
generators are in sychronization or running simultaneously
is called parlalling and sychronization means keep the
parameters like voltage, frequency and phase sequence of the
two machines
equal with respect to each other. that means the voltage,
frequency, phase sequence waves of the first generator
should be equal to the voltage, frequency and phase sequence
of the second generator

Answer / ramireddy
Synchronization is the process of connecting alternator to
the grid system or aiternators which are already connected
parllely.
after it is syncronised to the grid system then it is said
to be working parrlel with another alternators

Answer / anand
Running of two similar systems by keeping voltage,phase
sequence and frequency same is known as paralleling (ex:
two or more D.G sets or two or more transformers).
Running of two dissimilar systems keeping the above
parameters same is known as synchronization (ex:D.G set and
transformer).

Answer / sangram patil
Parallel:- in this process you dont have concentrate on
equality of Voltage, freq & phase angle. its a simple
method of devidation, so its easly to devide load on one or
more m/cs.
Synchronisation:- in this process you have must be
conentrate on above parameters because its become direct
affect on source. it can be happen one or more equipments.
which should be done before loading the m/cs.

why VCB are not used in 132KV system(above 33KV system)
Dear sir, my knowledge about cable size determination is limited. Though I read examples I could not calculate the Cable size required for electric driven pump 40 KW, 380 Volt, 50 HZ, 50 meter from transformer and it is three phase star delta starting. Please help as there is no one in my surroundings to help.
Dear all: Recently we got a question about Interface between PMS and SAP-PM.once we got a update message from PMS.we should set the deletional flag for functional location in SAP system.Is there any FM or BAPI to use?There are only functional location create and change provided by SAP.

can we run AC & DC cables in same tray
Please clarify, 1. Is it required to lay two runs of GI wire along with Armoured LT cable if it is laid between one big mains (63Amps TPN SDF) to small main (32A TPN SDF) with proper glanding termination? 2. If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from DB to CNC machine, is it required to run two runs of body earthing to the Machine from DB? 3.If the armoured cable with proper glanding is laid from Substation to Hangar, distance is approx. 100 mtrs, is it required to do earthing at shop area though the primary termination at substation is earthed through gland.
