The field protection relay is to detect field ground problems, not shorted turns.
Shorted turns occurr all the time. I have 5 turns shorted as we speak in one of my units. Repair is 16 months away and the unit has been operating for about 3 years this way.

chicopee — 0.1% hydrogen would not qualify the generator as hydrogen cooled.

What was the extent of the damage? Was an explosion one of the manifestations?
