can we correct the p.f.of ac generator?

Answer / k.prakashchandra
Yes.By varying the excitation i.e. the terminal voltage.If
the voltage of the generator is more than the grid
voltage ,the pf will be lagging and the vice versa.But the
pf has to be maintained at 0.9 to 0.98 lag ,for system
stability.A poor pf results in higher armature current
which is also not desirable

Answer / mohammad afzal
yes, we can correct the p.f of ac generator by manually
varying the volatage of generator and exciting current of
the field rotor. the recommended range of the p.f should
between 0.9 to 0.98 lagging. poor p.f more armature current
and increase in temperature of stator which is not
desirable.

Why do we perform an open-circuit test and short-circuit test on the transformer?
I have two AC generators, the first rated 2680KVA for 380V/4345A/pf:0.7 and the second rated 3461KVA for 5500V/363A/pf:0.8. I want to parallel the two generator to a bus. The second generator passes through a transformer to down the voltage to 380V and a part of its power goes to another bus so that it's only a part of the total power of the second generator taht goes to the considered bus. I have two Basler DECS100 AVR regulator. How can I make the synchronization ? What others equipments must have ?
