As an example, a 250 kVA motor generator operating at 300 ampere of full load current will require 1550 ampere of in-rush current during a re-closure after 5 seconds. This example used a fixed mounted flywheel sized to result in a 1 ⁄ 2 Hz per second slew rate. The motor–generator was a vertical type two-bearing machine with oil-bath bearings.
