Abstract
The problem of relationship between the opening of the wicket gates and the position of runner blades within the speed control block for a hydro-generator with adjustable blades turbine is solved with an element which is called "cam", which couples these two positions. The cam in a modern approach is implemented with a microcontroller based digital system.
