Abstract

A control equipment for automatically controlling power units in an electrical power supply system includes a control unit being connected through a data transmission element to each power unit to be controlled, for receiving power-unit-specific measured variables and for emitting power-unit-specific reference variables. The control unit evaluates the measured variables cyclically by taking account of stored values and defining a control instruction for one or each power unit. Particularly effective control of the power units is possible through the use of such a control equipment, with both a predetermined reliability level of the power supply or electricity supply being maintained and an unnecessarily high power reserve being avoided.
