Learn how automatic regulation keeps alternating current generators stable and efficient, even as load and speed change.

This book explains a method for exciting alternating-current dynamo-electric machines and regulating them automatically. It covers how a secondary exciter and a main machine work together to maintain steady output without relying on mechanical gearing. The approach uses compensating windings to balance armature reaction, improving how the system responds to varying load and lag.

Understand how automatic lag and lead control adjust the exciting current to maintain constancy.
See how a compensating coil helps neutralize disturbances from armature reaction.
Learn why keeping the exciter in step with the alternator can improve regulation across different operating conditions.

Ideal for engineers, students, and professionals who design, analyze, or maintain AC generating systems, this edition offers a practical view of early regulation methods and their impact on real-world performance.
