Answer»

Reasons for the following in a power generator :

(a). Armature is used as a stator

→ As electric energy at high potential, without any insulation problem or sparking can be generated.

(b). Strong electromagnets are used as field magnets .

→ The main advantage of an electromagnet over a permanent magnet is that the magnetic field can be quickly charged by controlling the amount of electric current in the winding.

(c). Three armature coils are arranged at 120° angular separation.

→ To provide phase difference of 120°.
