In a synchronous motor, damper windings are provided on____________?
Correct answer: C. pole faces
- A. stator frame
- B. rotor shaft
- C. pole faces
- D. none of the above
Explanation
Damper bars are embedded in the pole faces of a salient-pole rotor. They provide induction-motor starting action and suppress rotor oscillations called hunting.
