Hey guys,
Question 148 of PPI Exam 2 asks about an underfrequency condition in electrical systems. My question is:
Doesn't underfrequency also cause overloads? From my understanding, due to generator droop, frequency is inversely related to real power. So the lower the frequency, the higher the real power. I would think that generators and motors would be overloaded in an underfrequency condition.
Also in motors, flux is proportional to the V/f ratio. So I would think that with lower frequency, the motor would become oversaturated...
What are your thoughts on this?
