what is droop?

Answer Posted / deepak bhardwaj jamia

Droop is the characteristic curve of a diesel generator.
Droop is the curve plotted of the KVARat the x-axis and the
KW in the y-axis
Reverse power in an alternator happens when the unit is not
properly synchronized with the bigger power system that your
unit is interconnected. Reverse power may result in tripping
your Air circuit breaker protection or in worse case cause
the alternator to burn or the engine drive to rotate in
reverse and result to damages
