This will never happen because AVR and giverning
arrangement.Governor always control speed according to load.

Answer / subodhkhivsara

If prime mover runs very high speed (without any control)
within a fraction of second rotor damaged and after that
Excitation system damaged.It will goes very dangerous
mode.So Never run Alternator without control.

Answer / gurucharan singh

Generator loading & No load running has no effect its
paramaters, means generator run at no load as required.
Second part of question, generator are normally designed to
1.2 to 1.5 times of nominal speed to run for one minute
without any problem. Very generation system has a speed
controller & voltage controller which responce to these
condition within 1 to 2 seconds. I suggest interviwer shall
not confuse to candidate at interview.

Answer / k.prakashchandra

There are over speed and over voltage relays to
protect.Governor becomes helpless if there is sudden throw
off of load,then over speed relay of the governor shuts down
the prime mover.With AVR, voltage does not increase.However
generators are designed to withstand runaway speeds for
short periods. Bearings are first to get damaged under
prolonged high speeds.Governors can also be made not to
allow for undesired high speeds with the help of braking
systems, if they are employed.

Answer / k.prakashchandra

The above is applicable to hydro-generator

Answer / n r@jesh

D.G runs No load condition out put voltage will generated
high so, system protection will damaged

Why do you have to use Protecion relay with the function MTB ( Mechanical Trip Button ) for electrical system.

In our factory so many iron pillors are exists for supporting the shed/Hangar. If do more no of earthings at one piller instead of doing more earth pits in many locations and running earth strip around the hanger, I can save the money. Please suggest this method is acceptable as per Is specifications though the Earth resitance of the farthest piller is with in the limits as per IS specifications.

Dear Sir, we met a disaster with our 62.5 kva genset, after rewinding we informed by our contract engg that due to return current coming in neutral & impropper earthing this happend. But after all set up & load balance we checked & found again we have about 20 to 32 amp return current on neutral. we have 12 airconditioner + 12 mini fridge on single phase line. Pl suggest any idea to solved this problem
