Loaded Synchronous Generators (Part 1 of 2)

This video, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the first part of a two part lecture on synchronous generators in the loaded condition. The lecture analyzes the operation and behaviors of a synchronous generator connected to an electrical load. In this video, presenter Jim Pytel introduces electrically excited synchronous generators and presents three scenarios that demonstrate the relationship between voltage output and resistive, inductive, and capacitive loads.

This video runs 12:58 minutes in length. The second part of the lecture is available to view separately
