Abstract

In a method of operating a generator connected to a power supply network, in particular a synchronous generator, during a network fault in the power supply network, in particular during an electric short-circuit, electric excitation of the generator is at least temporarily reduced based on the value of at least one operating parameter of the generator prior to the network fault and/or during the network fault.
