Which D.C. motor has got maximum self loading property?

Correct answer: D. Differentially compounded motor

  • A. Series motor
  • B. Shunt motor
  • C. Cumulatively compounded 'motor
  • D. Differentially compounded motor

Explanation

A differentially compounded motor has opposing series and shunt fluxes, so its flux falls as load increases. This causes the motor to draw more current and become increasingly self-loading, making its operation unstable.
