Answer / kj

This is caused by kvar. If the excitation is higher (field
voltage) it will take more kvar. This will only be shown by
a current not load. The KW will remain the same.
Reduce the excitation (voltage setting on the AVR) on No 2
generator until it is reading the same current as the other
3 generators.
