1. LOAD CONTROLLER
Digital Load Control is the governor electronics that function as a frequency and voltage regulator on a generator. Load control is suitable for a micro hydro power plant applied on rivers (with
out a dam).
Some of the benefits of load control:
1. Can avoid mechanical equipment / electrical complex and expensive.
2. Load control equipment is relatively simple and inexpensive.
3. Load control can receive a large load changes.
4. Maintenance is very easy to do.

GENERATING POWER
MAIN LOAD
BALLAST LOAD
TIME
Seen from the graph above Generating power (power is still produced), the load change is
always offset by Ballast load. Thus, the amount of power and Ballast load main load will always be the same as Generating power.

Grounding
Put round bar copper minimum 4 point to yield resistance below 5 Ohm (Local Electric), each
bar is connected with the round cable that is connected with the BC ground terminal on the DLC
panel. The distance between the round bars that is planted minimum twice the length of round
bar to produce the optimal resistance. BC connected with concrete, penstock, turbine etc. (objects made of metal).
Customer Wire
Customer wiring that used is four wires, one as neutral and three as phase. Size of wire adjusted
on the big of power and the length of the network. Too long and thin wire network causes high
voltage droop. See the power house wiring figure.

MAINTENANCE WORKS
Check the cable ties in the terminal Generator, DLC Panel, MCB and Ballast Load, tighten if
loose. This examination should be conducted in Power Plan is stop/ switched off (OFF). Perform measurements OHM on the ballast load terminal on each heater once a month to ensure all
elements of Check immersion water heater elements to function properly. Control seal element
from the water heater to the leakage possibilities. Check immersion water heater elements from
leakage possibilities or control Air Heater Terminal from loosing and corrosion. When power
plant is stop, clean immersion water heater elements with cloths and add little of soap (dont
scrub). When the power plant is turned on, check rotary fan control on the panel to ensure the
rotary fan works properly, the fan does not work will damage the electronics components.

Before running out of CB Power plan, panel must be OFF position and CB AVR must be
ON (if use SX421-stamford)
Check AVR:
a. Excitation Switch must be ON position
b. Volt Trim on CCW full position
c. Stability on center position
d. UFRO on the center position then turn CCW a little
Open the turbine valve slowly until the maximum DLC voltage is 230V and frequency
meter is less than 50 Hz.
Measure the voltage for every phase by using Multi meter tester (Volt meter) and write
down the result on the table (table no.1)
Add more the opening of the turbine valve after the indicator lamp on DLC main board is
lights until DLC panel voltage reach 220V-240V and frequency meter is 50Hz.
Set Volt Trim on AVR until the Phase voltage is (225-230V)/ (390-400V). Write down
the result on the table (table no.2)
On this step, hold the turbine valve min. 4 hours to heat the spinning part and assure the
DLC is running well.

Add more the opening of the turbine valve until the ballast voltage no. 1,2,3 are 110V
and the ballast no. 2,4,6 are OFF. Write down the result on the table (table no.3)
11
Add more the opening of the turbine valve until ballast voltage no. 1,2,3 (STEP 1) is
220V and ballast no. 2,4,6 are still 0V. Write down all the result of the ballast voltage
(table no.4)
12
Add more the opening of the turbine valve until ballast voltage no. 1,3,5 is 220V and ballast no. 2,4,6 (STEP 2) 100V. Write down all the result of the ballast voltage (table no.5)
13
Add more the opening of the turbine valve until reaches the optimum position, (max. of
all ballast is 220V and frequency 50Hz). Write down all the result of the ballast voltage
(table no.6)
14
Turn on the customer load, check the line voltage, ampere ballast and the indicator lamp.

SW-3: DROOP
Droop is used for the parallel with the work of others or isolated work. Of working with isolated
droop, Ballast load can be monitored remotely from the unit by adding one indicator Ballast
(Ballast remote indicator). From the graph below looks at the Ballast zero frequency generator
50 Hz and when the Ballast full 100% increase to the frequency of 52 Hz. And also to the main
load, without load (power to enter all Ballast) frequency generator 52 Hz when the main load
and the increased frequency of reduced until 50 Hz.

Setting P (Proportional):
Increase P when ballast response is
too slow, but decrease P when the
generator frequency is oscillated
