The generator voltage should build to a percentage of the rated voltage. (The FCR
setpoint was set to 20% of the rated exciter field current in a previous step.) ...................... ________

Increase the exciter field current to 75% of rated. ................................................................. ________

The generator voltage should build to a percentage of the rated voltage. ............................ ________

Check the field voltage with an oscilloscope to verify proper output. (See the current
balance firing circuit waveform of Figure 103.) ...................................................................... ________

Figure 103. Field Voltage Output Waveform

Meter for the correct voltages at the voltage sensing inputs (E1, E2, E3). ........................... ________

Measure the PPT secondary voltages. (See Table 22 for the correct secondary
voltages at the transformer output.)

Using the Raise/Lower control raise the terminal voltage incrementally to the rated
voltage. .................................................................................................................................. ________

Place the Start/Stop switch in the Stop position. ................................................................... ________

Place the Start/Stop switch in the Start position to start the generator in FCR mode. .......... ________

Record the voltage buildup characteristic of the system as it reaches full-rated output. ...... ________

Perform a step response in FCR mode. ................................................................................ ________

Using the BESTCOMS Analysis screen, perform a 5% step change in FCR mode. ............ ________

Decrease the value first, and then increase the value. (Observe stable performance
using the recording capabilities of the Analysis screen.)....................................................... ________

Note the overshoot and settling time. (The FCR output should be very stable.) .................. ________

During the following test, be prepared to transfer back to FCR mode if there is a problem. Use the
BESTCOMS Metering screen to verify that tracking is stable before transferring. The Null Balance
indicator on the front panel should be continuously lit. If pre-position is enabled, the setpoint will go to the
assigned value first. Pre-position may need to be disabled for this test.

Verify that the AVR setpoint follows (auto-tracks) the FCR setpoint, then transfer. ............. ________

Note

During the following test, if pre-position is enabled, the setpoint will go
to the assigned value first.
