POWER LIMIT definition
POWER LIMIT. SYSTEM The Power Limit Circuit will monitor the KW & KVA of each engine generator set. If either of these parameters reach its limits, the Power Limit Circuit will reduce the power being delivered to the loads so that the load on each generator is held at its limit until the loads on the SCR drives are reduced (by other action) to a level below the generator limit. A meter on the Driller's Console indicates percent Power Limit. A warning lamp is illuminated on the Driller's Console at a load level just below the power limit.
