1) Introduction:
Synchronization is the process of matching the voltage,
frequency, and phase angle of a generator with those of the power
grid before connecting them together. This step is essential to
ensure a smooth and safe transfer of power between the generator
and the grid. Additionally, the V-curve provides information
about the generator's operating characteristics, especially its
ability to maintain a stable voltage output under varying load
conditions.
2) Objectives:
- To determine the correct sequence for a generator. Several
methods can be used, including the dark lamp method, bright
lamp method and the two bright one dark method.
- To synchronize between the generator and the infinite bus
system and understand its characteristics (constant speed,
constant voltage, constant and frequency)
- To Obtain the V-Curve between (If & Ia) and Power Curve
between (If & P.F) for the generator

We can observe that the power factor alternates between leading and lagging, with
a unity power factor in the middle. This suggests that the electrical machine's power
factor changes depending on the operating conditions.
The leading power factor can be represented by a phasor that is leading the voltage
vector, while the lagging power factor can be represented by a phasor that is lagging
behind the voltage vector. Unity power factor is represented by a phasor that is in
phase with the voltage vector.
Overall, the phasor diagram helps visualize the changes in current magnitude and
power factor during parallel operation in electrical machines. It is a useful tool for
understanding the electrical characteristics and performance of the system.
