Utility-scale wind turbines rely on precise generator control systems to convert rotational energy into synchronized, clean, 3-phase electricity. For technicians working on these massive renewable energy systems, practical troubleshooting knowledge is vital. Amatrol’s Wind Turbine Generator Control Troubleshooting Learning System (950-TGC1) equips learners with the real-world skills and knowledge needed to operate, adjust, and troubleshoot wind turbine generator systems.
This immersive training platform includes the major components found in real turbine systems, such as a generator control unit, power distribution panel, transformer, shunt trip circuit breaker, and more. Featuring Amatrol’s exclusive electronic fault insertion system, the 950-TGC1 allows students to explore realistic troubleshooting scenarios across multiple subsystems—with built-in performance tracking and safety controls.
Spanish eLearning Available.
Amatrol’s 950-TGC1 system mirrors the actual components used in industry, including a power factor correction capacitor network, main line contactor, transducers, and inductive filters. Learners can safely perform system start-up, shutdown, and operational testing using generator control software that simulates real turbine behaviors.
The included electronic fault insertion system enables instructors to introduce 29 different faults spanning Operational, Bus, Line, Drive, Temperature, and Generator categories. Students learn how to analyze and solve each fault scenario independently—an essential skill when working atop turbine towers.
The 950-TGC1 system can be linked to Amatrol’s Turbine Nacelle and Turbine Electric Hub Troubleshooting systems to create a fully integrated wind turbine training lab. Through fiber optic communication and unified turbine control software, learners simulate complete grid integration and turbine commissioning.
Learners benefit from Amatrol’s in-depth multimedia curriculum featuring 3D animations, expert narration, and interactive content. The included Student Reference Guide consolidates key learning objectives into a bound volume ideal for review and classroom support.
