A superconducting generator is expected to be a next-generation machine because of many advantages over a conventional generator. Super-GM has been promoting R&D of 70MW-class superconducting model generators to verify the basic technologies required for the design and manufacture of a 200MW-class superconducting pilotgenerator. Verification tests of the third model generator, quick response excitation type C generator, finished by Jun 1999. The excellent characteristics as asuperconducting generator were verified through the series of tests. We reportmain test results such as “Open and shortcircuit test, “Loaded test”, “Quick excitation test”, “Negative phase sequence overcurrent test” and “Sudden short circuit test”.
