Which of the following component is usually fabricated out of silicon steel ?
Correct answer: C. Statorcore
- A. Bearings
- B. Shaft
- C. Statorcore
- D. None of the above
Explanation
The stator core is built from laminated silicon-steel sheets because silicon steel has low hysteresis loss and laminations limit eddy-current loss. Bearings and shafts are made from mechanical-grade metals rather than core steel.
