This guide covers general recommendations for the operation, loading and maintenance of Hydro-Generators and generator/motors having salient pole rotors and conventional cooling systems.

Various areas of the withdrawn standard will be updated and revised to current practice.

Revision Standard - Inactive-Reserved. General recommendations for the operation, loading, and maintenance of synchronoushydro-generators and generator/motors are covered. This guide does not apply to synchronousmachines having cylindrical rotors. In this guide, the term hydro-generator is used to describe asynchronous machine coupled to a hydraulic turbine or pump-turbine. This guide is not intended toapply in any way to the prime mover.
