How does diesel generator(induction generator) work?When induction motor running as generator it takes mechanical power and supply electrical power from stator. To run the induction motor as generator, it's slip must be less than zero. i.e negative Negative slip show that the rotor is running at a speed above the synchronous speed. Thus when slip...
