  • Publication number: 20230369785
    Abstract: A foreign object debris (FOD) protection cover includes a dielectric barrier assembly having an integrated washer. The dielectric barrier assembly includes a base and one or more barrier walls integrally formed with the base. The washer is integrally formed in the base and includes a hole extending radially about a center axis of the washer. The base and the barrier wall of the dielectric barrier assembly are formed from a dielectric material, and the washer is formed from an electrically conductive material.

  • Patent number: 8305049
    Abstract: An electric power generation system has a synchronous machine, a starter excitation source and an exciter field driver. The starter excitation source is connected to the synchronous machine via multiple phase connections, and the exciter field driver is connected to the synchronous machine via a portion of the same phase connections. At least one of the phase connections is connected to each other phase connection via a transient voltage suppressor.
