HI,
There are a lot of ifs and buts.
I assume salient pole synchronous alternator.
If the rpm is reduced by a factor of 5/6 to 750rpm, the frequency
will drop to 50Hz, the volts will drop to 400V and the power will
drop to 166KW. If three phase, then if you have a neutral connection,
400V gives about 230V single phase. You would have to adjust control
circuits to set volts to 400V. There are a lot of potential problems
so get someone knowledgeable to evaluate this.
regards,
Duncan Irvine.
