Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to use a separate device between the analog and digital communications lines to convert the digital load sharing information from the digital communication line to the analog communication line and vice versa. The device does not generate power itself for the load sharing and therefore does not disturb the load sharing of the generators on the both sides of the device. The device can be seen as a gate between the digital communication line and the analog communication line. The device simulates load situation of the generator/s connected to the digital communication line for load sharing with other generator/s connected to the analog communication line, and similarly it simulates load situation of the other generator/s connected to the analog communication line for load sharing with the generator/s connected to the digital communication line.
