I am having a DG set.The 415 V from Generator is step up to
460 v and then the same is used for Induction furnace.
before Step up, I am connecting LT load to my factory use.
When Induction furnace is in service from DG, when i try to
start a motor, the generator is tripped.Please tell me the
reason.

Also check if the motor starter is working properly and APFC
panel is off while generator starts, check the fault codes
on the breaker if you have an ACB connected in the AMF panel.
Though there could be many other reasons as well but I would
rather check these things as well.

Answer / r.shanmugasundaram
Induction furnace controller is basically a rectifier cum
Inverter. Generally Rectifiers will generate Harmonics.
Suppose if the DG is not selected to accomodate this non
linear load then the sinusoidal wave form gets distorted
and will trip the DG set or other connected loads which
involves electronic circuitry. May be you can check
with an oscilloscope how the sinusoidal wave pattern
changes when Furnace is switched On. Suppose if the wave
form distortion does not happen then ther could be some
other reason

I am designing new project sub station with 220 kV / 11 kV, 40 MVA capacity. This project have many recifier sets, which can generate 3rd harmonics. Now I have to select vector group of This transformer. To minimise 3rd harmonics, what care should I take in selection of Transformer Vecrtor group? If it is Y-Y with open Delta tertiary then what should be the rating & voltage of Tertiary Winding?
