T4800 SerieS
Load Sharer for Conventional Governors
Description
The T4800 Load Sharer provides automatic load sharing and
frequency control for parallel running generators. The load
sharing is proportional, meaning that the generators will be
loaded equally compared to their individual capacity.
The load on each generator is compared with the load on
the other generators and corrected until balance is obtained.
Load sharing is necessary after synchronization in order to
reestablish load balance and to obtain long term stability of
load and system frequency (compensating the droop of the
speed governor).
The T4800 has a built-in reverse power protection with
selectable limits and time delays.

FeaTureS BeNeFiTS
Adjustable delta frequency,
stability and % load
deviation by front panel
potentiometers
Facilitates adjustment during installation and
commissioning. Load deviation adjustment
enables paralleling of differenst size
generators.
Inputs for disabling internal
frequency control
Enables operation where system frequency
is set externally such as in grid-parallel
operation
Reverse power trip
Economic solution for reverse power
protection
Visual indication of voltage,
increase/decrease and
