A well-maintained synchronization system is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of diesel generator sets (DG sets). Here’s a basic checklist for preventive maintenance:

Department: Engineering       Equipment Name: DG sets Synchronization system Equip. No./ID:                               Frequency: Quarterly
S. NoCheck PointsProcedureActivityDone By / Date
  1Keep synchronization system and control panel in the Local mode operation.Before starting the maintenance activities, keep the synchronization system and control panel in the Local mode operation.  
  2Check for any terminal wires or cables loose connections.Ensure tightness of terminal connections by using proper tools. If found any loose connections properly tighten the same.  
3Check the condition of terminal connectors.Ensure by visual inspection. If found any abnormality replace the same.  
  4Check the cables and lugs and for any melting or colour changes due to loose connections.Ensure by visual and physical inspection. If found any abnormality properly reterminate/replace the same.  
  5Check and ensure the earth connections from earth pit to panel for proper tightness.Ensure physically by using proper tools. If found any looseness tighten the same properly.  
6Check and ensure the cable glands for proper fixing.Ensure by physical inspection. If found any abnormal, tighten the same properly.  
7Check for any cable entry openings in the panel.By visual inspection. If found any openings, close properly.  
  8Clean the panels outside, inside individual feeders and cable chambers.  By using vacuum cleaner and dry cloths.  
  9Check labels of terminal blocks and inside accessories are present and are in place.By visual inspection, ensure presence of lables.If found any missing, paste new labels properly.  
  10Check the availability of control diagram in the control panel.Ensure by visual inspection. If found any missing, keep Xerox copy of diagram in the control panel.  
    11Check and ensure proper operation of planned, unplanned; restore to EB, demand controller operations in the Auto/Manual/Local modes.Ensure by operating from the system and control panel. After completion of above activities, keep the synchronization system and control panel in the Auto mode operation.  
  12Check and ensure proper working condition of indicating lamps, panel inside light fittings and exhaust fans.Ensure by visual inspection. If any deviations repair/replace the same.  
    13    Check neutral to earth voltage.By using clamp meter ensure N-E voltage should be below1V.Note down the value in the remarks column. If found any deviation, add salt, coal and water to the respective earth pit to improve the resistance value.
