What will happen if the generator turns in a wrong
direction?

Answer Posted / kj

A generator can operate in both directions. The main reason
for only operating in one direction is that the prime
movers are only designed to operate in one direction.
Often the design of the cooling fan will also work in both
directions. What will happen to the generator? The phase
rotation would be reversed.

If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
