Appendix A<br />
VIBRATION MOUNT<br />
A rubber device located between the engine or generator<br />
and the cradle to minimize vibration.<br />
VOLT<br />
The unit of elecro-motive force.That electromotive force<br />
which, when steadily applied to a conductor whose<br />
resistance is one ohm, will produce a current of one ampere.<br />
VOLTAGE<br />
Electrical potential or potential difference expressed in volts.<br />
VOLTAGE REGULATOR<br />
A component which automatically maintains proper<br />
generator voltage by controlling the amount of (DC)<br />
excitation to the rotor.<br />
WATT<br />
Unit of electrical power. (In DC), equals volts times amperes.<br />
(In AC) equals effective volts times effective amps times<br />
power factor times a consistent dependent on the number<br />
of phases. 1 kilowatt = 1,000 watts.<br />
WINDING<br />
All the coils of a generator. Stator winding consists of a<br />
number stator coils and their interconnections. Rotor<br />
windings consist of all windings and connections on the<br />
rotor poles.<br />
