- Over-frequency: AC Output is over 420 Hz for 5 seconds
- Under-frequency: AC Output is under 380 Hz for 7 seconds
- Over voltage: AC Output is over 130 volts for 2 seconds
- Under voltage: AC Output is under 100 volts in 7 seconds
- Overload: Output is over 125% of rated capacity for 5 minutes
The voltage regulator displays and latches the fault if any of the above should occur.
Power is automatically disengaged from the aircraft.
Generator Control Module Characteristics:
The following are the electrical characteristics of the Generator Control Module:
- Voltage regulation: +/- 1% maximum over full range of generator loading.
- Voltage transient: 13.8% no load to full load.
- Voltage transient recovery time: +/- 1% of nominal voltage within 100 milliseconds.
- Voltage modulation: 0.5% at steady state.
- Line drop compensation: Provides a voltage increase of up to 10 volts, line to neutral, to
compensate for voltage drop in the aircraft cable assembly.
