A power plant comprises three turbine-generators rated 1000 MW, 800 MW and 500 MW respectively. The regulation constant of each generator is 0.05 pu based on its own rating. Each unit is initially operating at one-half of its own rating, when the system load suddenly increases by 300 MW. Calculate the following: a) Per-unit area frequency response characteristic on a 1000 MW system base. b) Steady-state drop in area frequency [CR4] c) The share of the load increase on each generator.
