You desperately need some courses in electrical theory.

Perhaps you should hire a technician who can educate you as he straightens out your power plant.

This gives synchronization and auto load sharing sequence....

Search the net; there are plenty of compact electronic modules available for auto start & auto synch. of DG sets.

Having read this guys past questions it begs the question.

"Who in their right mind would let him near a generator!"

You say sets "independent run" mode at present.

Consequently, there is no guarantee [to us remote onlookers, who do not have all - seeing power] that governors and AVR are currently capable to run in parallel with other generators.

Speed (governor) and reactive power (AVR) "droop" [fall of speed or voltage with increasing load of several % rated between zero and rated load] are the minimum requirement for parallel running. Reactive power droop usually needs a CT (current transformer) input to the AVR as well as generator voltage.

You need to have parallel-run capability before you get to auto start and synchronise.

As is now, can you parallel the units under manual control??
