projects proceed smoothly and on time with the minimum of project management and/or engineering design/consultancy services. In our experience it is always better to design for, rather than close our minds to, possible failure modes. We therefore accept that it is necessary for turbines to reach full run -away speed safely and have generators supplied to us tested at full run -away speed to ensure that no damage will occur. Some suppliers use lower cost generators which will handle 130% or 140% of normal speed and hope to be able to shut their turbines down before the turbine has accelerated to full run -away and accept that if the machine does ever reach full run -away the generator will be damaged. Gilkes experience is that full run -away is usually reached in less than 5 seconds and is therefore extremely difficult to avoid.
