Abstract
A method of controlling an output of a generation plant (2) that is connected to a bulk electrical power network (4) by an electrical route (6). The method comprises determining (31) a phase angle difference between a first phase angle representing a phase angle of a voltage waveform at an output of the generation plant (2) and a second phase angle representing a phase angle of a voltage waveform at a location within the bulk electrical power network (4). The phase angle difference is compared (32) to a threshold phase angle difference that represents a constraint on the electrical route (6). The output of the generation plant (2) is controlled (33, 34) based on the comparison to prevent overloading of the electrical route (6).
