There are two ways to roll the turbine

Manual Mode
ATRS (Automatic turbine run up system)

Using ATRS
THERE ARE THREE MODE OF OPERATION: AUTOMATIC MODE
:WHEN SGC IS SWITCHED TO AUTOMATIC ON & START UP/SHUTDOWN IS INITIATED,THEN STEP IS SET & COMMAND IS EXECUTED IF CRITERIAS FOR THE STEP ARE FULLFILLED.

SEMI AUTOMATIC : IT ENABLES CONTINUATION OF

PROGRAM STEP BY STEP. ALL CRITERIA FOR A STEP IS SIMULATED BY A SWITCH.IT IS USEFUL WHEN PROGRAM STOPS DUE TO MISSING CRITERIA.

OPERATOR GUIDE MODE

:IN THIS SGC WILL NOT

ISSUE ANY COMMAND ,HOWEVER STEPS WILL PROCEED SEQUENTIALLY.COMMAND HAS TO BE GIVEN MANUALLY BY Vivek Jain OPERATOR.

Manual Mode Using EHC Using HC

Before going further, it is necessary to review the Governing system in brief.
