- Voltage sag is a decrease in rms voltage for a short duration due to short circuit, overload or starting of electric motor
- It usually happens when the voltage reduces between 10 to 90 % of nominal voltage for half cycle to one minute

20. What is Alternator?
Alternator is an electrical generator that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy in the form of alternating current
21. What is difference between Alternator and Generator?
- In generator poles are on stator and winding on rotor, A.C generates in winding,which converts to D.C through commutator segments , connected at the ends of each winding, is collected through brushes, mounted on neutral axis
- In alternator winding is on stator and poles are on rotor, hence simple in construction, absence of commutator makes it more simple in construction, hence all high rating machines used for generating electricity, are alternator, are having less maintenance and manufacturing cost than generator, and are more economical mainly used in power generation
- Excess Voltage differences cause generators to create circulating currents when one generator tries to drive the other.
- Phase sequence will cause the big damage, the bigger the phase difference the more electro-mechanical force is between the two out of phase generators
- The rms line voltage of the running system and the new or incoming system must be equal
- The phase sequence of the two systems must match
- The phase angle be equal on both
- The frequencies of both systems must match
