load test on dc shunt generator is a test to plot the internal and external characteristics of the generator.


What is the difference between a seperately excited DC generator and DC shunt generator?

The difference between a separately excited DC generator and a Shunt DC generator is that for a separately excited Dc generator , the excitation field winding is supplied by an external source different from that supplying the armature while for shunt generator, the excitation field windind is connected in series with the armature and supplied by a single source.

What would happen if a shunt-excited DC generator was operated at too low a speed?

A shunt generator is a type of DC generator that does not use a permanent magnet. Reducing the speed of the generator will reduce the output, but not the load the generator requires because the currents in the parallel branches are independent.

What is critical resistance of the field circuit of a DC generator?

The value of resistance of shunt field winding beyond which the shunt generator fails to build up its voltage is known as " critical resistance at a given speed it is the maximum field resistance with which the shunt generator excite.
