In case of a 4-pole D.C. generator provided with a two layer lap winding with sixteen coils, the pole pitch will be__________________?
Correct answer: B. 8
- A. 4
- B. 8
- C. 16
- D. 32
Explanation
Sixteen coils in a two-layer winding provide 32 active conductors. Pole pitch is the number of conductors per pole, so it is 32 divided by 4, giving 8.
