Answer»

Correct ANSWER is (b) TAPPINGS

Explanation: For a given field current, control of series field is achieved by means of a diverter, a low resistance connected in PARALLEL to series winding. A more practical way of a series field control is CHANGING the number of turns of the winding by SUITABLE tappings which are brought out for control purpose.
