A generating station for a power system consists of five 122 MVA 15-kV 0.85-PF-lagging synchronous generators with identical speed droop characteristics operating in parallel. The governors on the generators’ prime movers are adjusted to produce a 2.5-Hz drop from no load to full load. four of these generators are each supplying a steady 72 MW at a frequency of 60 Hz, while the fifth generator (called the swing generator) handles all incremental load changes on the system while maintaining the system's frequency at 60 Hz.
