Narrative:
Event was during a first officer requalification flight with the student as the pilot flying. Pushback and taxi were normal. On the takeoff roll; at approximately 60 knots as I was checking the takeoff power setting; we received an EICAS message of elec gen rt. The overhead switches showed that the right generator had tripped off; and there was low idg [integrated drive generator] oil press. I called for an abort of the takeoff; and pulled the thrust levers back; asked the first officer to tell the tower we were aborting and then to advise the passengers and flight attendants to remain seated. After clearing the runway; we completed the irregular procedure check list; which had us disconnect the idg. After talking to dispatch and maintenance control; we returned to the gate.
