3. Repair Results and Comments Generator Rotor Receipt• The 9A3 Generator Rotor from BIR Mcherga arrived in Jebel Ali GE Service Centre, on05 December 2017 for rewind and HSB. Rotor was packed in a wooden box with steel base. Rotor was supported on journalsand on rotor body. General Visual Inspection The following general conditions were noted: • Rotor was wrapped with tarpaulin and polythene sheets added on the retaining ringsand journals. Upon unloading and removal of the packing the following general conditions werenoted: • The retaining rings were in assembled condition. • The journals were cover by nomex insulation. • Fan blades not received. Component Specific Visual Inspection Turbine End (TE) Coupling: • Light contamination, scouring on coupling rear face and bolt holes. • Deep scratches from outer rear face. • The balancing plane groove has no weights found. • Jacking marks from outer face.
