In case of series winding total line current is flow through it.line current is very very high.so,to minimize the drop the winding made as low turns and low gauge.hence the resistance is low.in case of shunt winding high resistance winding is used otherwise short circuit the parallel winding.for that winding is made as heavy turns and heavy gauge.

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.
What field setting for a dc shunt motor wired in series on high voltage?
A shunt dc motor has quite different characteristics from a series motor. Wired in series, the same current passes through the armature and the field winding and it is most unlikely that a shunt motor would have a field winding that is suitable for this. Therefore a shunt motor cannot be wired as a series motor in general because its field winding is designed for only a small current.
What is the difference between shunt and series regulator?
Basic voltage regulators are classified as either SERIES or SHUNT, depending on the location or position of the regulating element(s) in relation to the circuit load resistance.
Why the armature voltage E changes when the field rheostat is varied?
This depends on how the motor and wiring. You'll need to provide more information. Series / compound / shunt / differential / self or separately excited / is the rheostat in parallel or series to the field / is the rheostat on the shunt field or series field (if compound)
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.
Does series field winding have more resistance or a shunt field winding?
shunt field winding have more resistance than series field winding ************sai ganesh ************269*******
How will a shunt generator behave if the field resistance is greater than the critical resistance?
the shunt generator wont be started .hehe
What happens to the generated voltage of a self excited generator if shunt field resistance is greater than the critical resistance?
it doesn't develop emf ..........
What is critical resistance of the field circuit of a DC generator?

What are the differences of Long shunt vs short shunt generator?
In long shunt the shunt field winding is in parallel to both generator and series field. In short shunt the shunt field is in parallel to generator only.
Which has a highest resistance between shunt resistor and series resistor?
If you are placing more than one resistors in series, then its combined resistance is higher than when you place these resistors in shunt.
Can a shunt field winding be used as a series field winding in dc series motor?
aster
Is the critical resistance of shunt field less or more than the field resistance of generator?
More due to the impedance levels in the generator

Therefore a shunt motor cannot be wired as a series motor in general because its field winding is designed for only a small current.
What is the difference between shunt generators and series generators?
1. In Shunt generators armature current is equal to sum of field current and load current whereas in series generators field current and load current is same. 2. Shunt generators field winding has high resistance and large no of turns as compared to series generators. 3. Shunt generator field winding has thin conductor and series generator has thick.
What is the difference between shunt and series regulator?

Why resistance in series won't control speed in dc shunt motors?
because current is same in series resister
