  • Abstract
    The use of induction generators in semioutdoor plants, simple relay and water-wheel controls, and fully automatic features has reduced materially the plant investment, operating, and maintenance costs, thus making the use of small hydroelectric sites more desirable. The economic aspects of two actual induction generator plants are described.
