Problem 1RQ: What conditions must be met before two alternators can be paralleled together?
Question

6 shunt generators are running in parallel in a curtain generating station. Each generator supplies a load current of 500 A at 220 V. The shunt field current of each generator is 5 A and the armature resistance of each machine is 0.05 ohm. If one generator is suddenly switched off determine the percentage change in terminal voltage, the total load current being kept uncharged. A: 3%-2%
