10.2.7 Generator Vibration and Temperature Monitoring

X and Y proximity probes are mounted in the generator exciter and driven-end bearings.
These probes are monitored continuously by the control system. Alarm and shutdown
levels are set to protect the generator from excessive vibration levels
Resistance temperature devices (RTDs) are mounted in the generator exciter and driven
end bearings. Two RTDs are also imbedded in each of the three stator-winding phases.
One RTD is connected to the control system and the other is provided as a spare. Alarm
and shutdown levels are set to protect the generator from excessive temperature levels.

10.2.8 Redundant Combined Generator Control Module (Optional)

A second CGCM can be provided to function as a hot backup to the primary CGCM. The
system is configured for automatic transfer to the second CGCM in the event the primary
CGCM fails. All control, protection, and monitoring features of the primary CGCM are
duplicated in the second CGCM. Control can also be manually transferred between the
CGCMs.
