After synchronizing the running generator with grid, the avr getting tripped and the generator breaker also oettong tripped, before tripping the avr the pf meter of generator is showing leading pf please kindly give a suggestion to rectify this problem.

Answer Posted / k.prakashchandra

If AVR trips UCB has to trip either for LOE(loss of excitation ) or reverse power .Leading pf indicates gen voltage lower than grid voltage . Check the measuring PTs. Is is better to synchronize manually before resorting to Auto. Check the synchroscope also

In Air circuit breaker LSIG protection unit is used. Without fault in cables (2 runs 3Cx150Sq.mm Copper, 1Kv grade, XPLE armored cable IR value is more than 550Mohm @ 500V Megger) and load section Long time Overcurrent protection is triggers and trips the unit. We changed LSIG protection with new factory tested unit. Even then fault is persisting. Please suggest the possible causes
