This paper presents a comprehensive review of faults in electrical machines as well as single-phase synchronous generators. The work was divided into five parts. The first pat is introduction which gives a vivid explanation of synchronous generator and what single phase generators are used in enhancing power supply as a standalone power source. Part two centered on the literature review and an overview of the faults in single phase synchronous generator. Faults in stator and Rotor windings were elaborately discussed. Modelling of single phase synchronous generator using mathematical models was what is contained in part three. Here, all the equations of the machines parameters were defined. Short circuit faults was discussed in part four which contained the effects of sudden short circuit faults. Sub – transient, transient and steady state conditions of a single phase generator under sudden short circuit fault. The last part is conclusion which is contained the summary of the work.
