Abstract
A phasor diagram for excited-field synchronous machines is recommended for adoption by USASI and IEC. The diagram and the choice of direct and quadrature axes are defined so that the laws of induced voltages are expressed in "natural" form. The recommended diagram overcomes certain apparent inconsistencies in the phasor diagram in USASI Standard C42.10-1957.
