Under unusual circumstances, it may be required to operate a ship's service generator above its rated kVA. What supplemental casualty control action will be required?

Correct Answer: Option D — Increase the cooling water flow, while maintaining air temperatures above the dew point to avoid any condensation.

Operating a generator above rated kVA during emergencies causes excessive thermal loading in the windings. To mitigate overheating without dropping below safe frequency limits, cooling water flow must be maximized while keeping intake air temperatures above the dew point to prevent condensation.
