Generator power levels are monitored to protect against reverse power flow and loss of excitation.

Reverse Power

Reverse power protection guards against reverse power flow that may result from a loss of prime mover
torque (and lead to generator motoring). A reverse power condition occurs when the flow of reverse
power exceeds the 32R pickup threshold

A

for the duration of the 32R time delay

. Reverse power

protection can be enabled and disabled

C

without altering the pickup and time delay settings. Reverse

power pickup and trip elements in BESTlogicPlus can be used in a logic scheme to initiate corrective
action in response to the condition. BESTCOMSPlus reverse power protection settings are illustrated in
Figure 33.

Loss of Excitation

The loss of excitation element operates on excessive var flow into the machine, indicating abnormally low
field excitation. This element protects controlled generators as well as motors. A diagram of the 40Q
