  • Abstract
    An extension of the Potier method of testing for armature leakage reactance of synchronous machines is presented in this paper, wherein it is shown that the easily tested for Potier reactance varies considerably and therefore has a limited field of usefulness. It is further shown that if the Potier reactance is measured at high values of field current, the armature leakage reactance is closely approximated and a more valuable test results.
