Abstract :
In modernizing older existing stations in connection with plant capacity addition programs, difficulties often are encountered in installing adequate generator outlet capacity for modern generators several times larger in rating than the older units being replaced. In some cases the use of forced-air cooling may be justified as a means of increasing cable capacity well beyond the self-cooled rating of the installation.
