No-load speed of which of the following motor will be highest ?

Correct answer: B. Series motor

  • A. Shunt motor
  • B. Series motor
  • C. Cumulative compound motor
  • D. Differentiate compound motor

Explanation

A series motor has very high no-load speed because its flux becomes small when armature current and series-field current are small. It must not be operated unloaded because this speed can become destructive.
