A main generator is operating and connected to an infinite power grid.
Elevated main generator winding temperature requires a reduction in reactive load from 200 MVAR (out) to 150 MVAR (out).
To accomplish the reactive load reduction, the operator must __________ the generator field current; when generator reactive load equals 150 MVAR (out) the generator power factor will be __________ than the initial power factor.
A. increase; larger
B. increase; smaller
C. decrease; larger
D. decrease; smaller
