thread237-287242: Generator Collector Ring arcing and pitting problem
There was a thread back in 2010 posted by electrageek under same title and ended abruptly without conclusion.
I'm watch electrician in power generating facility and have a similar problem. One of the collector rings developed rough surface ab 1x2.5" and is arcing now.
Does anyone knows cause of the problem

It must be removed from the rotor to be thoroughly cleaned/corrected or even replaced.
Not likely the answer one wants to read, depending on the size of the machine.
