Abstract

Turbine governor is a device that regulates the amount of water entering into the turbine, which in turn rotates the generator to produce electricity. In order to maintain the frequency of the unit, he speed of rotation of the turbine shaft must be kept constant. Turbine governor is also responsible for making sure the rotation of the turbine will not exceed its limitation. It is the primary protection or over speeding and has backup relay in case of governor failure. In Agus V hydroelectric power plant, the type of governor used is electric-hydraulic governor, a combination of mechanical component and electrical control. The electric-hydraulic governor used in Agus V has two modes of operation that s used when connected in an isolated system or in parallel with the large system. These two modes are isochronous mode and droop speed control mode.
