The article deals with the experimental results of the short-circuit experience, active and inductive resistances of a massive rotor with short-circuited copper cells. And also experimental mechanical characteristics of model asynchronous generators with different massive rotors at the same overall power have been studied.

The article describes the use of asynchronous machines in generator mode to provide power to threephase consumers, as well as the features of autonomous and parallel operation of an asynchronous generator with an infinite power network. The use of static sources of reactive power allows widespread introduction of an asynchronous generator in the electric power system as a reliable source of active power.
