Abstract: The study deals with the variant of power return increase in Damless Micro Hydroplant (DMH) by hardware and software automatic control means. The microprocessor regulator provides the automatic electric generator load current drive in the zone of a maximum take-off needed for charging the accumulator. Additional functions of a microprocessor regulator: calculation of time and power resource to be supplied to consumers connected to a DMH outputs, automatic switching of convertors depending on power consumption, display and recording DMH operation modes and the water flow speed. The study offers a structural scheme of a microprocessor regulator and its operation flowchart.
