  • Abstract
    THOUGH electrical circuits from generator armature windings outward to utilization apparatus have received much attention from a protective viewpoint in the past 20 years, relatively little attention has been given to generator field-winding protection. Calculations show that loss of field in a large generator may cause serious voltage disturbance to the system. A need for some suitable protection method that will initiate disconnection of the troubled machine is indicated.
