Three-phase induction generator for single-phase line

Journal Article · · IEEE Trans. Power Electronics; (United States)
Hydroelectric generators of less than 20 kilowatts can be in remote areas served only by a single-phase line. For high efficiency and low cost, a three-phase induction generator should be used. This three-phase generator can operate with balanced voltages and currents when the ''phase-splitting'' circuit uses two capacitors connected to two different single-phase voltage sources.
