About this title

From the Back Cover:

Electrical Engineering/Power Engineering Inspection of Large Synchronous Machines Checklists, Failure Identification, and Troubleshooting IEEE Press Power Systems Engineering Series Paul M. Anderson, Series Editor A cogent, comprehensive guide to all aspects of the inspection of large synchronous machines, including generators, condensers, and motors, Inspection of Large Synchronous Machines will take you step by step through the function of almost any component, its mode of failure, failure identification, and solution tips. You’ll find an in-depth treatment of the full range of inspection issues:

• Theory of operation
• Background developments
• Inspection approaches and procedures
• Failure mechanisms
• Major electrical and mechanical tests, and much more!

Packed with photos and graphs, commonly used inspection forms, and extensive references for each topic, Inspection of Large Synchronous Machines is an essential troubleshooting guide for operators and inspectors, and an excellent learning tool for student engineers who want to understand how synchronous machines perform in the real world.
