Abstract
Surging has occurred on power systems whose transmission distance is small and load density high. The Duquesne Light Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has experienced these surges. This paper outlines tests conducted to determine the influence the steam turbine governors have in starting or sustaining a surge condition. The conclusions assumed are: 1. The governor system installed at Colfax Power Station will not start system surging. 2. The governor system will not sustain load oscillations.Keywords
