5.0 TESTING
Tests are performed to measure system damping and a
machines natural torsional frequencies and mode shapes.
Manufacturers can provide turbine-generator models that are
adequate for preliminary studies but these estimates have
shown as much as 10%difference between calculated and
measured natural frequencies. Because damping determines
if a particular unit faces an SSR problem requiring capital
expenditures to control, it is critical to obtain accurate
values. Only measurements can provide the accuracy to
eliminate uncertainties in the models and study results.

8.0 SUMMARY
Many utilities are either applying or considering applying
series capacitors because of the economic advantage. But
the hazards to turbine-generators require utility engineers to
fully understand and thoroughly analyze the effects of SSR
caused by series capacitors. SSR's complexity and the vast
amount of information could intimidate the novice. To help
in the understanding and analysis of SSR, this paper
consolidated and reviewed the key issues. Discussions
included basic theory, problem identification, testing, and
countermeasures. For gaining in-depth knowledge, the
paper provides a list of references.
