Explain the conditions for parallel operation of synchronous generators. A three phase, wye connected, synchronous generator is rated 150 MW, 0.85 lagging power factor, 12.6 kV, 60 Hz, and 1800 rpm. Each winding has an armature resistance of 0.05Q and a synchronous reactance of 0.6Q. Draw the phasor diagram with values, show torque angle and determine the induced voltage for the condition of rated load.
