Generator Fundamentals Presentation

The document discusses generator fundamentals including generator basics, excitation, and load profiles. Generator basics include construction, components, and connections. Excitation methods are described as direct, self-excited, permanent magnet, and internally excited. Load profiles examine linear and non-linear loads, harmonic distortion, and AC power characteristics including apparent, real, and reactive power. Generator loading limits based on engine and alternator ratings are also reviewed.
