Two compound generators are operated in parallel. If generator A has a series-field resistance of 0.0015 ohm is adjusted to take 30 percent of the line load while generator B with a series field resistance of 0.001 ohm takes the remainder of the load, determine the current flow in the two series fields and the equalizer when the load is 230 kw at 230 volts.
