Capstone Turbine Corporation • 21211 Nordhoff Street • Chatsworth • CA 91311 • USA User’s Manual: Advanced Power Server (APS) Model 145 User's Manual 2.3.3.4 Utility Power Meter Figure 11 shows the user interface on the APS for an external utility power meter. An external power meter is used for electrical load following. The external power meter supplies data on the power flow at a point between the turbine and the grid power supply. Refer to the APS-145 Technical Reference (Table 1) for instructions to connect a power meter to the APS. Touch to Enter Utility Setpoint Figure 11. Utility Power Meter Data and Setting As shown in Figure 13, the Power Meter group on the touch screen (see Figure 7 for location) displays data from the power meter if one is present. It also lets the user enter a utility setpoint if electrical load following is being used. The Power Meter group includes the following: o Utility Power (kW): This field displays power, in kilowatts, flowing through a power meter if one is present. o Utility Setpoint (kW): If load management is set to load following, the SET icon will be accessible and lets the user set the amount of power coming from the utility feed that the turbines in Grid Connect mode will try and regulate. Load management settings are done using CRMS-APS. Refer to the APS-145 Technical Reference (Table 1) for details. o Group Load (kW): This field displays the summation, in kilowatts, of the utility power reading and the output power of all the running turbines in Grid Connect mode. To set the utility setpoint (Figure 11), touch the SET button under Utility Setpoint on the screen. This opens the data entry keypad shown in Figure 5. Use the touch screen buttons on the keypad to enter the power demand value in kilowatts. Touch the OK button to save the value and close the keypad. 2.3.4. Status and Fault Reporting The APS provides data display fields and indicators for real-time reporting of data, faults, and turbine status. The following paragraphs describe the status and fault reporting objects on the APS screen. 400026 Rev E (March 2014) Page 17 of 56 Capstone reserves the right to change or modify, without notice, the design, specifications, and/or contents of this document without incurring any obligation either with respect to equipment previously sold or in the process of construction.
