Description / Abstract:
The procedures for installation described in this guide apply to
all types of synchronous generators and generator/motors rated 5
MVA and above to be coupled to hydraulic turbines or hydraulic
pump/turbines having vertical shafts.
Purpose
Large hydraulic turbine-driven generators are shipped as
components and completely assembled and installed at the site. The
installation, therefore, becomes a continuation of the
manufacturing process, and many of the operations involved are
those that are normally performed in the factory on smaller
generators. Close tolerances must be maintained in the fit and
alignment of the various parts. The use of proper installation
procedures is essential to achieve satisfactory operation of the
unit.
