... to be about 350 in total, can develop water leaks ( Ref 5 ). These leaks allow cooling water to penetrate the coil insulation, reducing the dielectric strength of the insulation, eventually causing a phase-to-ground electrical fault in the generator. This will trip the unit off-line. Consequential damage...
