Effect of Changes in Resistive, Inductive, and Excitation Capacitance on Voltage and Frequency of Induction Generators

Electricity is an important factor in technological development worldwide in this modern era. The biggest obstacle to global access to electrical energy is the difficulty of connecting remote areas to conventional transmission/distribution systems. The equipment used to generate electricity is a generator. Self-exciting induction generators are the best choice for applications where loads are not large or relatively small. This research conducted the effect of changes in load and excitation capacitance on the voltage and frequency of the generator. From the results of this study, the load change is inversely proportional to the voltage and directly proportional to the frequency. Suppose the value of the excitation capacitor used is smaller than the specified value. In that case, the resulting voltage will be smaller, where the value of the excitation capacitor is inversely proportional to the generator frequency.
