A rotory converter can also be run as a___________?
Correct answer: E. synchronous motorSelect Industrial Relays
- A. d.c. shunt motor
- B. d.c. series motor
- C. d.c. compound motor
- D. induction motor
- E. synchronous motorSelect Industrial Relays
Explanation
A rotary converter has a commutator and slip rings, so its AC-side machine can operate as a synchronous motor while producing DC output. It is therefore also classified as a synchronous motor in this context.
