Compound Generators. The compound generator is used for more than any other type. It may be built and adjusted automatically to supply an approximately constant voltage at the point of use, throughout the entire range of load. This is very great advantage. It is possible to provide a constant supply voltage at the end of a long feeder by the simple expedient of over compounding the generator, because the resistance drop in the line is compensated for by the rising characteristic of the generator. When the point of utilisation, is near the generator, a flat-compound machine may be used. (1) Differentially compounded generator. finds the result of application as an arch welding generator where the generator is practically short-circuited every time the electrode touches the metal plates to be welded. (2) Compound generators are used to supply power to :
