What is AVR in Turbo generator in Thermal power plant?

Answer Posted / rohit chandan

The main purpose of Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) is to
control the excitation to limit the terminal voltage of
synchronous generator at reference level.The excitation
system of a Turbo generator contains the exciter and the
AVR. AVR acts upon DC Vf that supply excitation to the
synchronous generator.
