According to certain designs of a rotor for a synchronous generator having a rotating rectifier assembly carried by the rotor, the rotating rectifier assembly is journaled below a bearing. Exciter leads coupling an exciter to the rotating rectifier assembly must pass under the bearing, making installation and removal of the rotating rectifier assembly difficult. In order to overcome the foregoing problem, a rectifier assembly for a generating system is disclosed. The rectifier assembly facilitates installation and removal of the rectifier assembly from the rotor cavity and comprises a tubular housing having a peripheral surface and an outwardly opening groove disposed in the surface and dimensioned to substantially completely and slidably receive an exciter lead when the housing is moved into or out of the cavity. The groove extends axially the length of the rectifier assembly and provides passage for the exciter lead during relative movement between the exciter lead and the rectifier assembly during installation and removal of the rectifier assembly. |
