Two synchronous generators operating in parallel 200 MW and 400 MW respectively. The drooping characteristics of their governors are 4% and 5% from no load to full load. Consider the governors operating at 50Hz on no load. How will the machine share, if the load is 600 MW?

 generator 2 gets over load
 200 MW and 400MW
 generator 1 gets over load
None of these
