    Name Plate Issue

    We have a recent generator rewind and upgrade. Runner was also refurbished. We asked the contractor/supplier to provide a name plate that would show exactly the power the generator would generate when coupled to the existing generator which is less than what the generator is actually designed...

    CT I dynamic

    The short circuit current at the branch bus duct for excitation system has been calculated as 130kA. But at this location we have CTs with Idynamic as 50kA. Need the forums response on whether the CTs will with stand the calculated short circuit current? What could be the repercussions...

    Vk and Rct requirement

    A certain protection relay has CT requirements of Vk > 50In (Rct + 2Rl + Rr). Where In is unity, and (2Rl + Rr) = 3. What would be the consequences if the Vk and Rct requirements are not 100 % met by the CT supplier? i.e Vk of the CT is lower than the calculated value (by the above formula)...

    CT specification

    How important is it to know that knee point voltage of a CT? Does it impact the design of the protection and metering systems? Is the formala; Vk > 50(Rct =3) where Rct is the resistance of the CT at 75C and Vk is the minimum knee point voltage, correct? Any and all help shall be highly...

    Semi conducting material

    Is any semi conducting material available in the market, for use as fillers in generator winding, which is also designated as Class F? Let me re phrase my question; Can a semi conducting slot filler also be class F? If yes, is it possible to get some recommendations? Sarg

    Corel oop vs El-cid test

    Is it necessary to carry out cote loop test along with an El-cid test for an old stator core before and after rewind? My question is: is El-cid good enough to give a good idea of the condition of the core? Sarg

    RTDs placement in stator winding

    Is it acceptable to put RTDs between top and bottom bars of different circuits of the same phase in a hydro electric generator? I am looking for the pros and cons of doing so in comparison to placing the RTDs in between the top and bottom bars of the same circuit of the same phase. This is a...

    Stress on coil insulation volts per mil

    I would appreciate if some one could explain the theory behind the stress (in volts per mil) on coil insulation of an electric generator. What's its significance and why is it taken into account while designing an electric generator? Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
