Reverse polarity means connecting a power source, or polarised componenet, with the positive and negative poles the wrong way round. If the positive and negative supply is connected the wrong way round in electronic devices, it usually causes damage, because semiconductors are sensitive to polarity.f you reverse the polarity of the power supply, the rectifier is now in full conduction, across the supply, causing a dead short. This shunts any power away from the radio and blows the fuse in the line, thus protecting it.
Reverse power flow into a generator can occur during synchronization if the generator is spinning too slowly, or the voltage phase angle is lagging relative to the power systeâ¦m. If the generator is spinning too slowly, power from the system is used by the generator to increase its' speed.
