Abstract

Described is a method including monitoring a point of regulation voltage input to a generator control unit and monitoring a generator output voltage as a backup point of regulation voltage input. The method also includes detecting an overvoltage fault at the point of regulation voltage input, the backup point of regulation voltage input, or both. Additionally, the method includes opening a first solid-state switch () in response to detecting the overvoltage fault. Opening the first solid-state switch () prevents provision of an input signal () to a generator excitation field (). Further, the method includes opening a generator excitation field relay () in response to detecting the overvoltage fault. Opening the excitation field relay () also prevents provision of the input signal () to the generator excitation field ().
