A generator supported by a foundation includes a generator housing defining a first side and a second side that extend along a rotational axis of the generator, a first frame foot removably attached to the first side, and a second frame foot removably attached to the second side, wherein a height of the first frame foot and the second frame foot is selected to position the rotational axis at a desired height above the foundation, and wherein a width of the first frame foot and the second frame foot is selected to engage the foundation.

Foundation for a generator

Generator stator bar having profile strip and process for manufacturing a generator stator bar are presented. The generator stator bar includes stator bar strands assembled together. The profile strip is placed on top side and bottom side surfaces of the stator bar strand assembly. The profile strip includes uncured strip consisting of uncured material. The profile strip includes pre-cured strip consisting of pre-cured material. The pre-cured strip includes cavities perforated through its thickness. The profile strip enables the generator stator bar to be manufactured by a single press and heat operation to achieve a rectangular geometry having round outer edges and to maintain orientations of stator bar strands parallel to the profile strip.
