Best Answer

At least to a certain extent, by increasing the field current.

Or

In Real Power Plant they decrease the power factor to increase the voltage.

What effect if excitation voltage raise on load?

The generator terminal voltage will increase.


What can't we use step-up transformer to increase the voltage by producing electricity of lower voltage?

This question is not understandable. You can use a step up transformer to increase voltage; you can't increase voltage by producing electricity at a lower voltage; this will result in current flow into your generator, not current flow out (similar to operating a generator in the leading mode). Please explain further under "discuss question".


Which device you use to increase voltage from 220V to 11000V?

If it is AC, a transformer. If it is DC, a motor generator.


Does the voltage output increase when a generator is made to spin faster?

You would have to apply a higher voltage from outside - for example, in the case of DC, connect a battery that provides more voltage, or connect more than one battery in series; or in the case of AC, use a transformer to increase the voltage.


How you can increase the generator terminal voltage when synchronise with other generators?

The whole idea of synchronization is that you DON'T change the voltage (or frequency) from the other generators.


How current increases when the load increases in a generator?

Power is voltage times current. If you want to maintain constant voltage and yet increase power, then current must increase. Its simple math.


What is the off load voltage of the generator?

Terminal voltage is the voltage between the output terminals of a generator.


Generator excitation voltage?

the voltage which is given for creating magnetic field in a generator is known as excitation voltage.


How do you increase the amount of current created by a generator?

You can use a transformer to increase the current. Note that this will also decrease the voltage. The total energy will not increase; it will decrease slightly, due to losses in the transformer.


What determines the voltage in a generator?

in generator the flux will determines the voltage. the flux will improve by auto voltage controller or any other equipment.


What happens at the rated value of the voltage of the generator?

The rated voltage of a generator decreases due to many causes such as armature reaction, overloading of the generator and AVR failure/ weak excitation voltage.


How does the load affect voltage output of a series generator?

In a series generator, as load is added, output voltage increases.
