Abstract

A generator control arrangement for an electrical power generator, the arrangement comprising a controller arranged to regulate output voltage from a generator to a target value, the controller including a voltage comparator for comparing a presented voltage with a desired output voltage, the presented voltage derived in a transfer comparator by combination of a reference voltage value and an error value between a reference electrical current value and a measured electrical current value subject to a processor gain whereby the processor gain can be specifically set at zero to enable control by voltage or the processor gain can be specifically set at greater than zero to enable control by electrical current.
