PC based synchronoscope
The operation of connecting an alternator in parallel with another alternator or with common bus-bars is known as synchronizing. Generally, alternators are used in a power system where they are parallel with many other alternators. It means that the alternator is connected to a live system of constant and constant frequency. Often the electrical system to which the alternator is connected, has already so many alternators and loads connected to it that no matter what power is delivered by the incoming alternator, the voltage and frequency of the system remains the same. In that case, the alternator is said to be connected to infinite bus-bars. Traditional system uses Full Bright Lamp method or Full Dark Lamp method for the synchronization of alternator. This system is automatic synchronization of the alternator using PC based software and communicating hardware.
