A separately excited generator as compared to a self-excited generator_____________?

Correct answer: D. has all above features

  • A. is amenable to better voltage control
  • B. is more stable
  • C. has exciting current independent of load current
  • D. has all above features

Explanation

A separately excited generator has an independent field supply, allowing better voltage control and making its field current independent of load current. These features also improve voltage stability, so all the listed statements apply.
