An examination of key electrical terms and how these characteristics affect Generator design and testing.

Electrical Characteristics of a generator are often overlooked or misunderstood when planning or quoting a power generation project. This often leads to over-sizing, unnecessary testing, added costs, and even in extreme cases catastrophic failure in the field.

“Generator Jargon” will examine these crucial electrical characteristics and their effect on design, testing, and load considerations with topics including:

• Pitch
• Harmonics
• Saturation
• Reactance
• Time Constants
• Power Factor
• Voltage Dip
• Efficiency

Register for “Generator Jargon” to gain in-depth knowledge on the topics above and make sure your future power generator projects are properly planned and cost-efficient.
