20. Close all external load contactors between the generator sets and load. Generator sets are now operating with load applied.
21. Observe upper display for voltage and total current readings and the lower display for kW and kVAR readings on all
TQG units. Make very small adjustments to the VOLTAGE and FREQUENCY potentiometers to maintain balanced
reading of total amperes, %kW, and kVAR across all units in parallel.
22. Pressing POWER METER on GSC keypad, periodically compare kW and kVAR readings on lower display of all
generator sets. If readings are not within plus or minus 10% of one another, notify next higher level of maintenance.
