Elements # 02

The document discusses various topics related to alternators including: 1. If excitation of an alternator is increased while prime mover input is kept constant, the kVA output will be leading. 2. Distributing the windings in an alternator improves the voltage wave form. 3. Short-pitch coils in alternators are used to reduce the size of the alternator. 4. The most common method for synchronizing alternators in a power house is the bright lamp method. 5. For two alternators operating in parallel, if the load on one is to be increased, its field excitation must be weakened while keeping the input torque the same.
