  • Abstract
    The need for an additional 3 million kva of short-circuit capacity for a new circuit breaker laboratory was met by the construction of a 3,600-rpm generator with very low reactance. The general philosophy of designing for low reactance, which led to the two-pole design, is discussed and the various electrical and mechanical features of the generator are described
