Abstract: An isolated electrical power generation system is described with multiple isochronous, load-sharing engine-generator units. The system includes load sensing means for generating a signal representing the individual power output of each engine-generator unit, means for generating a signal representing the total power output of all the engine-generator units in the system, and load-sharing means responsive to deviations between each individual power output signal and the total power output signal for controlling the fuel inputs to the respective engines in the various units. A load simulating means responds to the occurrence of a preselected condition, such as an excessive temperature, in an individual unit for adding a simulated power output signal to the individual power output signal for that particular unit. This reduces the fuel input unit to that particular unit without reducing the total power output signal, thereby avoiding a reduction in the fuel inputs to the other units and a resultant reduction in the frequency of the power output of the system.
