Why DC excitation is used for alternators? Why cant it be AC?
Answer Posted / hitesh parmar
If A.C. excitation is provided in the alternator, the flux
produced will be alternating and accordimg to faraday's law
of magnetism back emf will be induced in the rotor, which in
turn causes a A.C.current to flow and as we know whenever a
current carrying conductor is placed in a magneti field
experience a force thus the torque will be produced in the
opposite direction to that of rotor rotation and the 2nd
reason is that in will produced a alternating poles that we
don't want so we are using D.C excitation only

What is the most accurate way of testing ELCB?ELCB is better than RCD?
1- XC and the RC time constant are both measures of the reaction of C to a change in ____? 2-The power factor is a numerical ratio with a value between 0 and 1 equal to the ______________ of the phase angle. 3-When V and I are out of phase because of reactance, the product of V times I is called ______________ power 4-For _____________ inductors, the branch currents can be added algebraically. 5- The ______________ power in watts can be calculated as I^2R 6-Calculate XL with L = 30mH and f = 1kHz ( I have Xl=2piFL 2*3.141592653*1kHz*30mH =188 ohms Please check) 7-A parallel RL circuit has the values, R = 5kohms, XL = 5kohms. A voltage source of Vt = 10Vrms is connected in parallel to R and L. Determine the total current, It delivered by the voltage source Vt. 8-A series RC circuit has R = 1Mohm and C = 1microF. How long would it take for the capacitor to fully discharge if it is initially fully charged? 9-A circuit has real power = 300W and an apparent power of 500VA. Determine the power factor and phase angle. 10-The time constant for an LR series circuit is T = 0.1s and R = 10ohms. Calculate the inductance L.
