In order to run motor on rated speed while carrying out Swinburne’s test we add ______________(a) Resistance in parallel with armature(b) Resistance in series with armature(c) Inductor in series with armature(d) Capacitor in parallel with armatureI had been asked this question in an interview for job.This key question is from Swinburne’s Test topic in section Efficiency and Testing of DC Machines

Answer»

The correct answer is (b) Resistance in series with armature

For EXPLANATION: The machine WOULD RUN at higher than rated speed with a rated armature voltage. Therefore, a series in the armature circuit is employed to REDUCE voltage applied to the MOTOR armature such that it runs at rated speed.
