In the early 1990' s the Power System Relaying Committee conducted a survey to determine how major synchronous generators in North America were protected from short circuits and other abnormal electrical conditions. The result surprised those who conducted the survey, The major results of the survey indicated clearly that the responding protection engineering population, with a few notable exceptions, appeared to have little knowledge about the electricalprotectionof synchronous generators. In retrospect, this response was probably not altogether unexpected. In the past ten years, utilities have built few new generating plants. During this same period, many companies have downsized. These two factors have resulted in the loss of engineering experise in the area of generator protection.
