Abstract

A method for regulating a collection of alternators comprising at least two alternators which power a load (C) in parallel and are each fitted with a regulator (12, 13) configured to deliver an output signal representative of the rate of reactive power of the corresponding alternator with respect to its nominal reactive power, and a regulation rule for modifying the rate of reactive power of the alternator depending on an input signal. In said method, a weighted signal is generated based on output signals which are representative of the rate of reactive power of each of the alternators and are provided by the corresponding regulators, said weighted signal being sent as an input signal of these regulators so as to cause each of the alternators to converge towards a predefined rate of reactive power (Trp).
