ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A rub between the rotating and stationary parts of a turbine is detected by connecting the rotor to elec- trical ground and introducing electrical energy into the rotor-ground circuit. A rub between the rotating station- ary part modifies the currents in the grounding circuit to an extent that the condition may be detected so as to provide a rub indication. In another embodiment the rotor discharge current in one or more grounding devices norm- ally associated with a turbine is monitored to detect any abnormal condition.
