    摘要: An external switch coupler includes: a guide tube having a first end and a second end, the first end configured to be attached to a door of a compartment in substantial alignment with both a hole in the door and a switch coupler within the compartment, and the second end configured to be disposed within an interior of the compartment and separated from the switch coupler by a gap when the door is closed; a coupling shaft configured to be operably placed within the guide tube, the coupling shaft having an electrically insulative member disposed between an coupler side adapter and a switch side adapter, and a length equal to or greater than a distance between the switch coupler and the hole in the door when the door is closed.

    摘要: The present disclosure generally relates to methods and systems for controlling the output frequency of a wind farm by providing instructions for adjusting wind farm output frequency from a frequency controller to an Active Power (AP) Controller in an existing SCADA system. More specifically, the method generally includes receiving frequency data of a plurality of wind turbines collected at a Point of Interconnection (POI) of a wind farm, calculating an error value based on a comparison of the frequency data to a predetermined frequency set point, determining whether to increase, decrease, or not affect an output frequency of the wind farm based on analysis of the calculated error value, and transmitting to an AP controller the determination whether to increase, decrease, or not affect the output frequency.
