I worked on generators 20 years ago but they were mostly stand alone up to 750kVA. I am now back in the generators field again working on power stations (415V up to 11,000V) and have noticed the controls, especially for parallel control have moved on a great deal technology wise since I worked on gensets. I have bought and downloaded books on generators / rotating machines / power stations etc but they all briefly touch on the concept of generation before moving on to transformers, transmission etc.
I am hoping there is something available that covers or concentrates on generators - stand alone, parallel, PID control, and most importantly troubleshooting i.e. circulating currents, shorted windings to earth & inter windings, SCADA controls & how to decipher faults etc.
