What This Code Means

VSCF Phase Error; Vrms > 125 & Hz < 45 while ramping; An incorrect voltage and frequency has been detected during starting

Possible Causes

  • •Brush harness connector is damaged
  • •Faulty brushes, slip rings, AVR, or AVR 3-phase connections
  • •Stator output voltage is greater than 125 VRMS but frequency is less than 45 Hz
  • •The brushes are arcing or worn
  • •The brushes are incorrectly wired
  • •The brushes are not connecting to the slip-ring
  • •The gas pressure is low and the engine is not coming up to speed
  • •The generator has started into a severe load
  • •The rotor is shorted
  • •The stepper motor is not working or the linkage is binding

Suggested Actions

  1. 1Check for Overload conditions
  2. 2Check for proper fuel supply and settings must be within specifications of unit
  3. 3Check for proper fuel supply and settings within specifications of unit
  4. 4Check rotor resistance at slip rings
  5. 5Check stepper operation
  6. 6Open MLCB and retest unit
  7. 7Perform Rotor Brush test
  8. 8Perform stepper motor test
