The excitation system of alternator is a critical component responsible for supplying the necessary field current to the generator’s rotor winding. This field current creates a magnetic field, inducing voltage in the stator windings, thus producing electrical power.
The features of excitation system of synchronous generators play an important role in power system stability. Excitation Systems are responsible for providing the necessary field current to the generator’s rotor winding to ensure stable and synchronized output voltage. It incorporates various features that contribute to its efficient and reliable operation.
Purpose of Excitation system is to regulate the generator’s terminal voltage and maintain the system’s stability during varying load conditions and disturbances.
