If it is a series motor it may still work. If it is a shunt motor it will not work , it will produce a humming noise and get heated. The shunt fields normally have high reactance so the field current will be drastically reduced, which may not be able to create the requisite torque.

What will happen if you will give ac supply to dc shunt motor?

it will not work.


What will happen when the shunt motor is connected across the supply line directly?

If the motor is designed for 120V or 220V whatever the case, it will function properly.If it is a 12V motor and you supply 120V it will make a mess and you will probably get hurt from flying debris!


What will happen if dc supply is given to shunt dc motor?

It will drawn a large amount of current which can destroy the shunt


How is a shunt coil installed?

'Shunt' is an archaic term, meaning 'in parallel with'. So a 'shunt coil' is connected 'in parallel' with... With what, of course, depends upon what sort of device you are talking about. For example the field coil of a d.c. shunt-connected motor has its field winding connected in parallel ('shunt') with the supply.


Can a shunt motor be started without residual magnetism?

Yes. The field is provided by the shunt windings, which are connected in parallel with the supply. You may be confusing a motor with a generator, as you cannot start a shunt generatorwithout residual magnetism.


What is three point dc shunt motor starter?

L , F and A L - Line (connected to Supply) F - Field (connected to field of dc motor) A - Armature (connected to armature of DC motor) that's y it is called 3 point


What happens if load of DC series motor is disconnected?

In D.C Shunt motor, the field winding is connected parallel with the armature winding.. If you remove the supply to armature winding, the motor will stop after some time.


What is DC shunt motor?

A shunt DC motor connects the armature and field windings in parallel or shunt with a common D.C. power source. This type of motor has good speed regulation even as the load varies, but does not have the starting torque of a series DC motor


In what two ways can the rotation of a shunt connected dc motor be reversed?

DC shunt motor can be reversed by changing the polarity of either the armature coil or the field coil.


What is shunt and series motor?

A series motor is one in which the field windings are in series with the armature windings. So the torque is proportional to the square of the supply current.'Shunt' is an archaic term for 'parallel'. So a shunt motor is one in which the field winding is in parallel with the armature windings. So the torque is proportional to the supply current.
