Electrical Engineering : Dc Generators QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS :: part5 : 1 to 5

Following Electrical Engineering Multiple choice objective type questions and answers will help you in BSNL JTO, GATE 2024 and IES 2024 examinations :

1.If a self excited D.C. generator after being installed, fails to build up on its first trial run, the first thing to do is to

reverse the field connections
increase the field resistance
increase the speed of primemover
check armature insulation resis�tance

2.Which generator would you prefer for feeding long D.C. transmission lines ?

Series generator
Shunt generator
Over compound generator
Flat compound generator

3.A D.C. generator works on the principle of

Lenz's law
Ohm's law
Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction
none of the above

4.The open circuit voltage of a compound generator is 250 V. At full load the terminal voltage

will be less than 250 V
will always be 250 V
may be greater or less than 250 V
none of the above

5.Two D.C. shunt generators, each with armature resistance of 0.02 ohm and field resistance of 50 ohm run in parallel and supply a total current of 1000 amperes to the load circuit. If their e.m.fs. are 270 V and 265 V, their bus bar voltage will be

270 V
267.5 V
265 V
257.4 V
