(OP)
Does anyone have photos or link to pictures of alternator damage due to out of phase sync?

RE: Mal Synchronising damage
On the tail end, have seen cracking of the insulation on the stator end windings, especially in mush wound machines, fairly rare in form wound. Have also seen amortisseur bars crack or break away from the collector ring in severe events. Also had two events of the generator rotor shaft at the drive coupling twist and bend.
But NEVER have seen a piston failure that I could blame on an out of phase close, and unfortunately I've seen quite a few. Depending on the type of piston failure, they are typically related to an over fueling, overload or lack of cooling type problem.
Hope that helps, Mike L.
