The paper deals with performance characteristics of a cage induction machine operating as a self excited induction generator (SEIG) in stand along mode. A static capacitor bank is considered to self excite the machine and to maintain its terminal voltage constant. The lagging reactive power requirement of self excited induction generator is obtained for different value of load. Effect of speed on excitation requirement of cage machine has also been studied. An algorithm is developed to achieve these characteristics using Newton-Raphson method and steady state equivalent circuit of the machine. The developed analytical technique is extended to evaluate the number of steps of switching capacitors for loading the machine up to its full load rating, while maintaining the terminal voltage within desired limits. The selection of optimum terminal voltage corresponding to maximum output of the machine for its optimum utilization is also made using single variable optimization.
