Armature reaction of an unsaturated D.C. machine is_____________?

Correct answer: A. crossmagnetising

  • A. crossmagnetising
  • B. demagnetising
  • C. magnetising
  • D. none of above

Explanation

For an unsaturated machine, the armature-reaction flux mainly acts at right angles to the main field and distorts it, so it is cross-magnetising. Demagnetising action becomes significant when brush shift and magnetic saturation are considered.
