Procedure
- With prime mover at rest, apply a dc flashing source across terminals F+ and A-.
- Connect positive of flashing source to F+ and negative to A-.
- When automatic field flashing is required, use a dc source not exceeding 125 V.
- Interconnect circuit as shown in Figure 3-5.
- A series limiting resistor may be required to limit flashing current.
Specs & values
- Flashing current typically limited to approximately 50% of no-load exciter field current
