In a Weston synchronoscope, the fixed coils are connected across_______________?
Correct answer: B. incoming alternator
- A. bus-bars
- B. incoming alternator
- C. a lamp
- D. none of the above
Explanation
In a Weston synchronoscope, the fixed-coil circuit is connected across the incoming alternator, while the other voltage circuit is associated with the bus-bars. This allows the instrument to compare the incoming generator with the live system before closing the breaker.
