Droop Control | What Is 3-Phase Power?, Part 9

In 3-phase electrical power systems, grid-forming controllers establish and regulate voltage and frequency. Droop control is a grid-forming control mechanism that has the added benefit of enabling precise power sharing between generators. You will learn:

1. How constant frequency (isochronous) control regulates frequency to a given setpoint regardless of active power output
2. How constant voltage control regulates voltage to a given setpoint regardless of reactive power output
3. How droop control is a simple and elegant solution to stability problems that can arise with constant frequency and constant voltage control
4. How frequency droop directly controls active power
5. How voltage droop directly controls reactive power
