 INTRODUCTION
 Ukai thermal power plant is located on the Tapi because of the water resources, along with the hydroelectric
power plant with the same name with installed capacity of 850mw.

 It is the one of the Gujarat’s major coal-fired power plants.

 Ukai TPS Unit -1 is the first power plant unit in India with a capacity more than 100 mw. It is divided into 4
units with power generation of 2*120 mw, 2*200 mw, and 1*210 mw resp.

 It comes under the Gujarat state electricity corporation limited (gsecl).

 Its installed capacity is 5541 mw.

 Automatic voltage regulator determine the strength of dc amp applied to the main field exciter windings.

 It also divide the reactive load between the alternators operating in parallel.
 AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATION OF ATERNATOR

 AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATOR IS USED TO REGULATE THE VOLTAGE.

 THE VARIATION IN THE VOLTAGE CAN BE CONTROLLED IN SEVERAL PLACES LIKES NEAR THE

TRANSFORMERS, GENERATOR ETC.

 IN DC SUPPLY SYSTEM THE VOLTAGE CAN BE CONTROLLED BY USING OVER COMPOUND

GENERATORS.

 IN AC SYSTEM THE VOLTAGE CAN BE CONTROLLED BY USING THE VARIOUS METHODS LIKES

BOOSTER TRANSFORMERS, INDUCTION REGULATORS.

 WORKING PRINCPLE
 IT WORKS ON THE PRINCIPLE OF DETECTION OF

VOLTAGE FLUCTUATION.

 THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF AN AC GENERATOR

OBTAINED THROUGH A POTENTIAL TRANSFORMER .

 THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE ACTUAL VOLTAGE

AND THE MAIN VOLTAGE IS KNOWN AS THE ERROR

VOLTAGE.

 AMPLIFIED ERROR SIGNALS CONTROL THE

EXCITATION OF THE MAIN OR PILOT EXCITER.
