This video, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the second part of a two part demonstration of an isolated electrically excited synchronous generator in the loaded condition. The demonstration will illustrate how varying the magnitude and reactive nature of an electrical load connected...

This video, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the first part of a two part lecture on generator synchronization. The lecture walks through how to synchronize a generator to the grid, how examine the electrical and mechanical transients that occur at the time of synchronization, and...
