Good video. Nice graphics and photos of the rotors.

Thanks you for this video. We had a motoring incident on three of our generators two days ago and the generators are yet to be inspected for damages.

[@wojciechbetlej3884]

Hope the machines are fine. Just wonder if you could share the findings?

Hi we had motoring incident for 4 mins only , excitation is maintained no issue what do you think and what is your recommendation for turbine and Generator , since after start up we did not face any change in T/G vibration

[@Biginjapan85]

Very good thanks.

Dead machine protection is provided for saving Generator from damage by accidently energization of Generator .

It actually happened in one of our units ...

[@wojtekair]

Really sorry to hear about that. Must have been a challanging time for you

Sir,if unit connected turbo generator during rolling say 200RPM accidentally field gets energised what will happen to the system.(breker in open condition but GT,UAT directly connected to generator)
