Abstract
The present invention provides a system interconnection protective device. A command for dropping a voltage is issued when the frequency change rate of a private generator set is positive, and a command for raising a voltage is issued when the frequency change rate is negative. The output voltage of the private generator set is varied by supplying an automatic voltage regulator with the voltage variation reference obtained by assisting the commands based on a rough tendency of frequency variations. Thus, a sole operation of the private generator set, which interconnects with a system, can reliably and easily be detected and protected on the side of the private generator set by enlarging the frequency variations without using any expensive transfer breaker.
