In a level compounded D.C. generator, full load terminal voltage is______________?

Correct answer: B. equal to no-load terminal voltage

  • A. negligibly low
  • B. equal to no-load terminal voltage
  • C. more than no-load terminal voltage
  • D. less than no-load terminal voltage

Explanation

A level-compounded generator is designed so that the series-field voltage rise compensates for armature-resistance and other internal voltage drops. Therefore, its full-load terminal voltage is approximately equal to its no-load terminal voltage.
