Losses which occur in rotating electric machines and do not occur in transformers are___________?

Correct answer: A. friction and windage losses

  • A. friction and windage losses
  • B. magnetic losses
  • C. hysteresis and eddy current losses
  • D. copper losses

Explanation

Friction and windage losses require moving mechanical parts, so they occur in rotating machines but not in a stationary transformer. Magnetic and copper losses can occur in both types of equipment.
