What are Self Excited DC Generators?Self-excited DC generatorA modern DC generator with an exciting coil is a self-excited generator, which starts with the initial current in the exciting coil. When the generator is turned off, a small magnetic force is generated in the rotor iron, which induces an electromotive force in the armature and therefore generates a current in the field windings. Initially, the weak magnetic field produces a small current in the coil, but in order to maintain self-exci

What is the Parallel Operation of DC Generators?Parallel operation definition of DC generatorIn modern power systems, power is usually provided by many parallel synchronous generators to ensure continuous operation of the plant. The use of single large generators is now obsolete. Having two generators in parallel helps keep them in sync. Adjusting their armature currents and properly connecting them to the bus bars can solve any synchronization problems.Busbar connectionGenerators in power plant
