D.C. generator generally preferred for charging automobile batteries is______________?
Correct answer: C. long shunt compound generator
- A. series generator
- B. shunt generator
- C. long shunt compound generator
- D. any of'the above
Explanation
A long-shunt compound generator provides a comparatively steady charging voltage while supplying the varying current needed by an automobile battery. Its compound characteristic is more suitable than that of a simple series generator for this duty.
