INTRODUCTION
In the current industrialization and modernization of our country and the
exploitation of information in the global. English plays an important role ihe
education and training, the development of the country in general and the maritime
industry in particular.
According to the International Convention on Standards of Training,
Certification and Watch keeping for Seafarers 2011, English is a compulsory
requirement for seafarers.
To help students of Maritime College I meet the English language
requirement of the future job after graduation, the textbook “Maritime English for
Ship Electricity” is compiled for the second year students of the Electro-
Electronics Department.
Based on the realities of the maritime industry in the world, the core of
which is the codes, conventions, as well as the guidelines and recommendations of
the International Maritime Organization (IMO). This textbook provides students
with advanced English grammar, maritime vocabulary and standard marine
communication phrases, as well as usage habits that have been developed
specifically for the maritime profession.
The textbook consists of 5 units with the structure of each unit as follows:
1. Vocabulary
2. Language focus
3. Skills
4. Practice
5. Assessment
While compiling, editors have also used some electrical and automation
materials published locally, abroad and through web-sites.

3. Skills
3.1. Reading comprehension: AC generators in parallel
Alternators are machines which, when driven by another machine (Diesel
engines, steam turbines, gas turbines, etc…) generate alternating current.
Depending on the nature of the fixed element, they are divided into two groups:
- Alternators with fixed field and moving armature
- Alternators with moving field and fixed armature
Of the two types, those with rotating field and fixed armature are the most
widely used.
In an alternator, the brushes of the slip rings do not require a switching plane.
The brushes are on two slip rings to supply excitation current to the rotor. These
rings are one piece and, therefore, contact is continuous and uninterrupted at any
point on their periphery.
When an alternator is activated and it fails to generate current, the problem may
be due to the fact that it is not self-exciting. To correct this problem, it is sufficient
to apply current from a battery or cell to the slip rings for a few moments.
If the load of a single generator becomes too large that its rating is exceeded, it
is necessary to add another generator in parallel to increase the
power available from the power station. Before attempting to connect AC
generator in parallel, the following conditions must be met:
1-1) The voltages of the alternators must be in phase.
1-2) The terminal voltage of the generators should be equal.
1-3) Their frequencies must be equal.
When two or more generators are operating in parallel where they satisfy the
three requirements mentioned in item 1 above, they are said to be in synchronism.
The operation in getting these machines into synchronism is called synchronizing.
For clarity in the following discussions, it is assumed that one generator is running
and another one to be synchronized will be called the incoming generator.

Working principle of an AC generator
An AC gemerator is an electric generator that converts mechanical energy to
(1)_________energy in the form of an aleternating EMF or alternating current. An
AC generator (2)_________on the pinciple of electromagnetic induction. In
electromgaetic induction, when there is a releative motion between a coil and a
magnetic field, an electric current or EMF is (3)________in the coil bounce of an AC
generator.
An AC generator has a/an (4)________ABCD. It is a/an (5)_________coil with many
turns wound around a soft iron core. A shaft, it can be rotated rapidly. A field magnet,
it may be a strong (6)________magnet with concave poles to slip rings s1 and s2.
These are connected to the armature and thus rotate with it. Two (7)________b1 and
b2, they provide electrical contact with the slip rings and a load which may be a
galvanometer and shore .
When the armature rotates between the poles of field magnet, the magnetic flux linked
with the armature changes continuously. As a result an EMF is induced in the
armature. This in turn produces an electric current through the armature and the
(8)__________and through the slip rings and the brushes. Noted that the
19
galvanometer needle swings between the negative and positive values. This means
that an alternating current is flowing through the galvanometer.

4.1: Further reading: AC generator operation
Read the TEXT once for the gist (overall idea) and then in detail.
Principle of AC Generator
There are two types of generators, one is AC generator and other is DC
generator. Whatever may be the types of generators, it always converts mechanical
power to electrical power. An ac generator produces alternating power. A dc
generator produces direct power. Both of these generators produce electrical
cuts magnetic lines force, due to which an emf is induced in the conductor. The
magnitude of this induced emf depends upon the rate of change of flux (magnetic
line force) linkage with the conductor. This emf will cause a current to flow if the
conductor circuit is closed.
How AC generator works?
