Abstract
A generator starter of a turbomachine, including an asynchronous electric machine configured so as to operate in motor mode during a starting phase of the turbomachine while being supplied by an electrical source, and so as to operate in generator mode after the starting phase of the turbomachine in order to supply an electrical load. An inverter is arranged between the electrical source and the asynchronous machine with at least two alternating current terminals coupled to the asynchronous machine, and a control unit for the inverter configured to supply the asynchronous machine with a starting current in motor mode and a magnetisation current in generator mode. The asynchronous machine includes at least one first stator winding connected to the alternating current terminals to be supplied with the starting current in motor mode and with the magnetisation current in generator mode, and at least one second stator winding connected to the electrical load in generator mode.
