Genset Control Systems
The prime mover and the generator build a perfect match. Local data are acquired and processed locally not only for securing the long-term operability of the system but also for a quick adaption to the set values. For best performance, we use state-of-the-art regulator concepts individually adapted to the utilized alternators. Via the established communication protocols CAN, Modbus, Profibus, Ethernet or IEC 60870-5, the collected data are transferred to the central control room where the whole Power Plant is monitored and operated. This well balanced Powertrain system could immediately follow the demand from the grid, whether it is stand-by, load sharing or peak-shaving.
That is smart -power- generation!

Woodward offers you unsurpassed control and protection system solutions for every type of power generation and distribution application, from the simplest to the most complex.
Automatic Transfer Switch Controllers
Load Transfer With Confidence
Woodward’s ATS (automatic transfer switch) controllers help you reduce complexity in terms of hardware, spacing, and component cost for new builds and retrofits. This is feasible, because our configurable software allows these applications to run from one controller:
• Utility-to-Generator
• Generator-to-Generator
• Utility-to-Utility
This also includes delayed and closed transition modes, among other typical ATS-specific features. By using Woodward products, you can handle all ATS-relevant features by ordering one single device, which provides maximum value for your ATS application. For more simple applications, Woodward provides a basic version of an ATS controller.
Woodward Engine Governors
Proven and reliable governor technology from the world leader
With over a century of mechanical governor experience, it’s no wonder that Woodward is the preeminent name among governor manufacturers. Our governors hold an extensive pedigree that dates back to 1870, starting with the enhanced waterwheel governor invented by our founder, Amos Woodward. By the turn of the century his son, Elmer, owned the patent on the first successful mechanical compensating governor for hydraulic turbines. Since then, we’ve been leveraging those basic mechanical governor principles into the world’s best mechanical and electronic governors for power generation, marine, pump, compression, and vehicle applications.
Woodward also provides global support through an extensive network of AISFs (Authorized Independent Service Facilities) that have been trained by Woodward to support governors in every corner of the world. Many of these AISFs also have the engineering capability to provide upgrade to an electronic control for enhanced control capabilities. For a complete list of AISFs please see the Worldwide Directory.
