    13.8KV, 60 Hz generator

    I saw diesel power plant barges which are rated 13.8Kv, 60Hz. If the barge will be moved to other countries with 50 Hz frequency, can it be used still? Does the rated power output of the generator rise or drops? Hope you can share your technical comments, thanks. Voltages

    13.8kv Switchgear Insulation Board Partitions

    There was a spark on the voltage transformer compartment due to moisture, the panel heaters malfunctions though. The insulation dividers (made of asbestos fibers)are heavily burnt also. If i order this asbestos fiber, it takes too long (3 months to arrive). Is it safe to use a phenolic board to...

    Ultrasonic Flowmeters

    We sort of to upgrade our flow meters in our power plant. The old one uses the gear type positive displacement meters. By the way the medium measured is bunker fuel C (HFO). As I got to inquire new products, we come to talk about ultrasonic flow meters. Despite being expensive i think its a good...

    460V/60Hz rating vs 400V/50Hz rating of a motor

    We order a 460V, 60Hz specs squirrel cage motor (12/7KW) at dual speed 1445/730 rpm. But the supplier delivers us instead of 400V, 50Hz (same KW, n rpm rating)motor. The supplier explains that the 400V, 50Hz is just the equivalent of 460V, 60Hz rating. Is it really safe to operate this motor...

    Generator excitation

    Im a beginer here, i just wonder why a generator should always have a DC excitation? If in transformers dc cannot be transformed (unless its pulsating dc) why is it used in excitation for generators as well. Is it because the magnetic field is moving magnetic one due to it rotates as the prime...
