Abstract :
IN REGENT YEARS it has been proved that synchronous generators can be operated over long periods of time without shutdown. In fact, the reliability of turbogenerators is such that more and more emphasis is being placed on getting an excitation system which approaches the reliability of the a-c generator. The electronic exciter may be one answer to the demand for improved excitation.
