Water can enter engine fuel system and causeproblems. In
addition, ifwater enters generator through cooling air slots,
some of the water wilt be retained in voidsand cracks of
the rotor and stator winding insulation.Waterand dirt
buildup on the generator internal windings will eventually
decreasethe insulationresistance of these windings.
