Electric Generators are the main producers of electric energy in the power system. They are complex machines from both mechanical and electrical standpoint. Failures of electric generator will lead to catastrophic consequences like blackouts, mechanical damages, high economic losses. From this fact can be said that continuous monitoring, preventive maintenance and testing are crucial.  

Power View Generators Working Group takes part in researching testing and monitoring methods, maintenance, generator diagnostics. Power View Generator Working Group share experience, expertise, research and test results with the members.  

The biggest field of interest of the Power View Generators Working Group are the advanced monitoring generator techniques: 

• Vibrations monitoring and condition diagnostics  
• Air Gap Flux monitoring 
• Partial Discharge Monitoring 
• Online versus Offline Partial Discharge Monitoring 
• Integration of Internet of Things Technologies
