The speed regulation of a synchronous motor is always___________?
Correct answer: D. zero
- A. 1%
- B. 0.5%
- C. positive
- D. zero
Explanation
A synchronous motor runs at synchronous speed, determined only by supply frequency and the number of poles, so its speed does not change with load within its operating limit. Hence its speed regulation is zero.
