What is Droop Control in Woodward?

Answer Posted / jerry smith

DROOP in reference to any governor control, is the amount
of allowable "sag" from the desired set point, or speed. A
generator operated by itself and islanded, would be allowed
to be operated with either droop or no droop. The only
exception is that two generating sources are not allowed to
both be at zero droop. Unless their governors are directly
communicating with each other, as in Woodward 2301A systems.

DCS marshaling Cabinet Power supply can be replace during plant running time? Answer Yes it is possible. I am talking about the controller and cards power supply modules. They are always redundant and connected through diode so that if one power supply fails the other can take the charge immediately.so it is possible to replace one of them in running plant if the other one is healthy. MY question is how switching done.
