Generators): In a d.c. power plant, power is usually supplied from several generators of small ratings connected in parallel instead of from one large generator. This is due to the following reasons: (i): Continuity of service: If a single large generator is used in the power plant, then in case of its breakdown, the whole plant will be shut down. However, if power is supplied from a number of small units operating in parallel, then in case of failure of one unit, the continuity of supply can be maintained by other healthy units. (ii): Maintenance and repair: Generators generally require routine-maintenance and repair. Therefore, if generators are operated in parallel, the routine or emergency operations can be performed by isolating the affected generator while load is being supplied by other units. This leads to both safety and economy. (Connecting Shunt Generators in Parallel): The generators in a power plant are connected in parallel through bus-bars. The bus-bars are heavy thick copper bars and they act as +ve and -ve terminals. The positive terminals of the generators are connected to the +ve side of bus-bars and negative terminals to the negative side of bus-bars. Shunt generator 1 connected to the bus-bars and supplying load. When the load on the power plant increases beyond the capacity of this generator, the second shunt generator 2 is connected in parallel wish the first to meet the increased load demand. The procedure for paralleling generator 2 with generator 1 is as under: (i): The prime mover of generator 2 is brought up to the rated speed. Now switch S4 in the field circuit of the generator 2 is closed. (ii): Next circuit breaker CB-2 is closed and the excitation of generator 2 is adjusted till it generates voltage equal to the bus-bars voltage. This is indicated by voltmeter V2. (iii): Now the generator 2, is ready to be paralleled with generator 1. The main switch S3, is closed, thus putting generator 2 in parallel with generator 1. Note that generator 2 is not supplying any load because its generated e.m.f. is equal to bus-bars voltage. The generator is said to be “floating” (i.e., not supplying any load) on the bus-bars. (iv): If generator 2 is to deliver any current, then its generated voltage E should be greater than the bus-bars voltage V. In that case, current supplied by it is I = (E - V)/Ra where Ra is the resistance of the armature circuit. By increasing the field current (and hence induced e.m.f. E), the generator 2 can be made to supply proper amount of load. (v): The load may be shifted from one shunt generator to another merely by adjusting the field excitation. Thus if generator 1 is to be shut down, the whole load can be shifted onto generator 2 provided it has the capacity to supply that load. In that case, reduce the current supplied by generator 1 to zero (This will be indicated by ammeter A1) open C.B.-1 and then open the main switch S1.
