What are different methods of excitation of dc generator?
when the current is passing through the winding then it is called "Excitation".
Types of excitation
(1)seperately excited generator.
(2)self excited generator.
self generator is classified into 3 types.
1.shunt generator.
2.series generator.
3.compound generator.
compoud generator is again classified into 2 types.
1.short shunt generator.
2.long shunt generator.
When an AC circuit contains both resistance and inductance the current and voltage will be in phase. This means having waveforms that are of the same frequency and that pass through corresponding value.
What is the definition of electrical resistance?
Resistance is the opposition to electric current, expressed in ohms.
Resistance is directly-proportional to the resistivity of the conducting material and its length, and inversely-proportional to its cross-sectional area.
Alternating current tends to flow towards the surface of a conductor due to the 'skin effect', thus reducing the effective cross-sectional area of a conductor. Therefore, resistance to a.c. is somewhat higher, at normal supply frequencies, than to d.c., and significantly higher at very high frequencies.
An R-L circuit is one having both resistance and inductance. These are naturally-occurring quantities that most circuits possess and, so, don't necessarily have any practical applications per se. However, a practical example of an R-L circuit is an electric motor whose windings have both resistance and inductance.
What is the current carrying capacity amps of CAT6 cable?
It is around 12.5 Amps, assuming the crosssection of one strand of cat 6 is of .5 sq mm and four strands are twidted together.
Why are houses wired with parallel circuits?
Because the supply voltage is common to each branch of a parallel circuit, each appliance receives its rated voltage which is necessary for the appliance to operate at its rated power. This is the main reason. Another reason is, should one appliance fail, then -unlike a series circuit- the other appliances will keep working.
The squirrel cage is skewed so that the force applied to the rotor it continuous. If they were straight then the force would be jerky, as whole of the bar is cutting the magnetic field lines at the same time. With the bars skewed the amount of the bar cutting the field line grows continuously and the next bar starts cutting the field lines as the first finishes.
also, slots are skewed to get uniform torque ,reduce the magnetic locking (also called COGGING EFFECT) between stator and rotor,and thirdly to reduce the magnetic humming noise during running condition
What is the difference between an inductor and a capacitor?
Firstly the suffix '-ance' in each of those three words indicate the properties the material exhibits.
Therefore resistance is the property by which any material tends to oppose the flow of current through it.
Inductance is the property by which a material opposes the change in current, or opposes an alternating current. An inductor can be appreciated simply using a coil of insulated wire, or a solenoid.
Capacitance is the property by which a material opposes the change in voltage across its ends, ie how it opposes alternating voltage. A capacitor comprises of, essentially, two metallic plates separated by a dielectric (a medium which may/may not be non-conducting, but is capable to contain charge).

What happens to the resistance of the circuit when you add resistances in parallel?
Adding a resistance in parallel to another resistance will reduce the equivalent resistance.
Parallel Equation:
R1 = 10Ω
R2 = 20Ω
Req = R1R2/(R1+R2) = (1/R1+1/R2)-1
Req = 10•20/(10+20) = 6.67Ω
How do you increase a voltage?
If you are dealing with AC voltage, you can use a transformer. You can find transformers at places like Radio Shack, Jaycar and some online sites like eBay. Transformers have to be connected in the right way. You have to connect the voltage you are going to increase to the low voltage side and on the high voltage side will be the voltage which has been stepped up by the transformer. (If you want a DC voltage out, you will need to connect a bridge rectifier to the output, followed by a large capacitor and then a voltage regulator of the voltage you want out.)
If you are dealing with DC voltage then you will need a chip to step the voltage up. These chips can step voltage up from around 1 to 10 volts to at least 20 to 30 volts. These chips also need to be connected correctly. You will need more components than using a transformer. You will probably need some capacitors and some resistors. Depending on the IC you choose, you will find many circuits on Google for it and how to build them.
By far the easiest type of voltage to step up is AC. If you have the option of AC, and need to have a very high voltage output, you are better off using a transformer, bridge rectifier and a rectifier.
How will the armature current and the output power of a dc shunt motors change with increasing load?
With increasing torque load the armature tends to slow down; the motor draws more current to compensate, and if there is armature resistance the back emf generated by the armature falls to allow the increased current to flow, which causes the motor to settle at a lower speed.
The mechanical output power is the speed times the torque, and increasing the torque increases the power output provided the speed does not drop much.
How do you convert 120 volts to 12 volts?
To step down 12 VAC to 3 VAC, you could use a step-down transformer with a winding ratio of 4:1 between primary and secondary.
Stepping Down DC VoltageWhat is the function of field winding in DC generator?

If you are talking about the wiring of buildings/houses then blue would be a hot with ac current. If you mean wire in electronics then it would also "usually" be a positive but if there is any danger you should never assume. A tester could save you from having to buy a new component or your life.
AnswerThe European convention is that blue insulation indicates a neutral conductor, brown, black, or grey insulation indicates a line conductor, and a yellow/green striped conductor indicates an earth conductor.
Need for generating high voltages in laboratory?
because in laboratory almost we are using only three phase equipents,so we require more pewer in laboratory, thats why we are generating high voltage in laboratory.
Why a single phase induction motor have two winding on stator?
Single phase motor will not start automatically unless it has a start and run winding.
What is fast frequency hopping?
This is also known as spread spectrum. It's a method of encoding a signal using a changing carrier frequency. FM radio is incoded using a single carrier frequency which is varied slightly to encode the information. Think of frequency hoping as FM, but with the carrier changing quickly. So instead of staying on 88.1, the signal starts on 88.1, then jumps to 95.2, then to 101.3, then to 81.5, etc. etc. Each transmitting and receiving device knows the pattern of carrier jumps, so it knows where to look for the information. This is how bluetooth works.
What happens to the current of the wire when the length increases?
resistance is directly proportional to wire length and inversely proportional to wire cross-sectional area. In other words, If the wire length is doubled, the resistance is doubled too. If the wire diameter is doubled, the resistance will reduce to 1/4 of the original resistance.
How do you connect a 9-wires 3-phase motor?
Incorrectly connecting a multi-phase motor could potentially cause a huge problem. Inside of the cover where the motor leads reside (we call them 'pigtails') is a diagram of the lead connections. They are wired for typically either 230V or 460 Volt AC operation
Why delta connection is used in load side?
There are a number of advantages why three phase (delta or Y configuration) is preferred over single phase circuit. The best advantage is that the each of the three lines in a three phase circuit can act as single phase thus effectively getting three single phase circuits in one transmission. Another advantage is whether it's single phase or three phase, the generation is the same, therefore three phase has more practical value. Also, the instantaneous power in single phase falls to zero but in three phase system, the net power from all the phases is continuous.
How could you convert step up transformer into step down transformer?
Injecting power into the higher voltage winding of a transformer will make it act as a step down transformer; injecting power into the lower voltage winding will make it act as a step up transformer. A transformer can be used both ways.
What is vector group of power transformer?
Hi first of all Vector group used to determine the PHASE shift of the TRANSFORMER as well as the PRIMARY and SECONDARY connection information.
Let taken an example:-
YNyn0d1 It means CAPITAL LETTERS indicates the primary side of winding detail's small letters for secondary side detail's DELTA CONNECTION Symbol D OR d is used and connection WYE used Y OR y for PRIMARY and SECONDARY.
If WYE connection is their neutral always come so we used suffix N OR n.
Now check PHASE angle Difference (PHASE ANGLE) see the last NUMERIC VALUE give correct information.
Suppose we connect/compare two TRANSFORMER we first see its VECTOR GROUP if they matched then we do move to any connection.
If any quarries fill-free to ask

What is voltage ratio on a transformer?
The voltage ratio of a potential, or voltage, transformer (PT or VT) depends upon the primary voltage to which it is connected. Accordingly, its voltage ratio varies considerably, as there is huge variety of system voltages throughout the world.
Typically a VT's secondary voltage is standardised at 110 V which will match the full-scale deflection of a voltmeter connected to it (although it can also supply protective relays), while its primary voltage is then matched to the voltage of the system to which it is connected: in the UK, for example:
