Abstract
TWO GENERAL electrical methods of quickly stopping synchronous machines are plugging and dynamic braking. Plugging, consisting of reversing the phase rotation of the voltage applied to the armature winding, is subjected to a number of serious objections. Dynamic braking, consisting of short-circuiting the armature through an external resistor and maintaining field excitation, is more desirable and generally will result in quicker stopping.
