I was working in electrical power station controlled by GE Fanuc PLC, this station of three generators, it can be synchronised manually or automatically according to the load demand, for the manual case there is a three position selector switch, this switch is used to select the number of generators to be in the service, P1 for 1 generator, P2 for two generators & P3 for three generators. Now the problem is that if I want to change from position P2 to P3 one of the generators will be diconnected electrically from the Bus for amoment then it will be synchronised againe in the same moment the theird generator will start and will be synchronised with the other two generators. this problem occurs also in case of changing from P3 to P2, i.e. two generators will be disconnected one time for amoment then one of them will connected again. Now the quistion is it a fault in the selector switch or it is a mistak in the program of the PLC? when I followed the PLC program I found that there is no latching signal while changing from P2 to P3, or From P3 to P2, i.e. to change from P2 to P3, P3 signal should come before P2 signal going off.
Thank you.
Thank you.
