Abstract :
A harmonic excitation system, as the name implies, utilizes the harmonic power developed in a generator for self-excitation. This power is picked up by a separate stator winding, and is controlled and rectified by means of a magnetic amplifier and silicon rectifiers. Factory tests indicate extremely rapid response to system disturbances
