Lower limit of 4V (adjustable) does not allow the Pressure controller output (hr Prc) to come to very low value; interference with Speed controller is also avoided.
Addition of 0.4 V in limit pressure mode helps to saturate Pressure controller output when Load controller is brought in service. This also helps to bring Pressure controller in service when Pressure drops 10 ksc from set point in Load controller mode.

FGMO BACKGROUND
Unique frequency band of 49.0 Hz to 50.5 Hz, as specified by IEGC Scheduling & dispatch by RLDCs/SLDCs is based on day ahead demand & availability Frequency control by load-generation balance in every 15 mins time block Wide frequency variation during Grid disturbance, Unit outage, change in demand, etc. No primary response by generators to maintain frequency under such system contingency Emergencies caused due to frequency control only through importing /cutting load by system operator
All generating units should have their speed governors in normal operation at all times to enable Grid frequency control by loading / unloading Droop characteristic for primary response should be within 3% to 6% Each unit shall be capable of instantaneously picking up at least 5% extra load for a minimum of 5 mins (up to 105%MCR), during fall in frequency No dead bands and/or time delays shall be deliberately introduced Facilities like load limiters, CMC, etc. shall not be used to suppress the normal governor action
IMPLEMENTATION OF FGMO
In line with clause Clause 1.6 of IEGC and CERC order dated 30-10-99, date of FGMO implementation, as decided by REBs are :Western Region - 19-05-03 ( ABT 01-07-02 ) Southern Region - 01-08-03 ( ABT 01-01-03 ) Northern Region - 01-10-03 ( ABT 01-12-02 ) Nor-East Region - 22-12-03 ( ABT 01-11-03 ) Eastern Region 02-01-04 ( ABT 01-04-03 )

M/C is on EHC with Tracking on. Starting device becomes inoperative due to Electrical module trouble/motor failure/overload.
Observation: During increase in boiler firing, Boiler pressure will increase due to load restriction by Starting device. EHC output will go to 100%. Action: Switch off the electrical module of Starting device and increase Starting device position from local so that EHC can take control.
Observation: EHC starts hunting Action: Isolate EHC and take Hydraulic mode in service. Replace the failed omponent. Governing characteristic checking should be done before EHC is put in service
Observation: M/C may get unloaded at frequency lower than recommended value. Action: Speeder Gear spring tension may be adjusted to increase the start of unloading.Testing for proper setting should be checked during suitable opportunity.
OPERATIONAL EMERGENCY

Load controller may changeover to speed controller when M/C will be unloaded. Action: Isolate EHC.Stabilize load in Hydraulic mode and then put EHC in service
OPERATIONAL EMERGENCY
Observation: TSE indicator will show abnormal margins and load will come down. Speed controller will be active if load comes below 10%(block load). Action: Isolate EHC to take M/C on Hydraulic mode. Decrease load for stabilization.
TSE Influence ON, when min of all the upper stress margins comes into picture to control gradient of nr lim and hence, acceleration of Rolling speed. Upper stress margin = 30 deg C => 10.0 V => 600 RPM ~ (Acceleration < 108 RPM ~ causes dn / dt tripping)
Stopping of nr lim when a) GCB open AND b) n act is < nr lim by approx. 45 RPM. This restricts hr nc up to around 30 % during Rolling to avoid wide v/v opening.
Stopping speed set point control when, a) n act > 2850 RPM AND b) nr raised ( I.e, nr > nr lim) AND c) I) TSE ON and faulted in GCB open condition
