Two shunt generators operating in parallel delivering a total load current of 240 A. One of the generators is rated 50 KW and the other 100 KW. The voltage rating of both machines is 500 V and have regulations of 4% and 6% respectively. Assuming linear characteristics, determine (i)the current delivered by each machine (ii) terminal voltage.
