The document discusses generator reactive power capacity and capability curves. It explains that generators can supply or absorb reactive power, known as megaVars, up to certain safe limits defined by their capability curves. When operating below the horizontal megawatt line, a generator is absorbing megaVars from the system and is in under-excited or leading mode, while above the line it is supplying megaVars and operating in lagging mode. Exceeding the limits of the capability curve can cause overheating of stator coils or instability issues due to weakening of magnetic fields.

Generator Mvar and MW given by the following curve.
There are limits to how much reactive power a generating unit can supply or absorbing mega Vars. A generating unit can safely operate while supplying or absorbing mega VARs. When a generator is operating in the negative portion of the capability curve (below the horizontal “mega watt line”), MVars are being absorbed from the system. We can say that the generator is operating in a leading or under excited mode. During most loading conditions the generator will operate in the lagging area or upper portion of the capability curve.
Generator Capability Curve
Consequence of exceeding capability curve.
Over and under excitation limiters. Operating a generator outside of its capability curve between points B and C will cause excessive current and over heating in the stator coils.
* lower current weakness magnetic field (cause instability).
