Governing of Water Power Under Variable Loads
The government of water power under variable loads has always been considered a difficult problem under the most favorable conditions. Many operators of water-power plants where changes in load are great and sudden have found their government so uncertain and near the danger line that it was believed a few years ago that small electric street railway plants could not be successfully operated by water power. With large plants the change in load represents but a small percentage of the whole power in use, so that the variation in load is not so extreme as to cause serious difficulty in the government of the power. It is the extreme and sudden changes that cause trouble.
