the switch S, Fig. 298, should not be closed until Em is equaland opposite to Eg. If this switch were closed when Em and Egare acting in the same direction round the closed circuit, then theresultant voltage Er would be equal to Em + Eg and would senda destructive current / through the circuit.… … Fig. 298.—Alternator driving Fig. 299.—Alternators in par-a synchronous motor. allel. across the switch S.
