Which of the following is not a reason, behind failing of self-exciting machine?(a) Residual magnetism is absent(b) Negative feedback(c) Field resistance value is more than critical resistance value(d) Armature resistance is non-zeroThis question was addressed to me during an online exam.The query is from Characteristics of Self Excited Generator topic in portion DC Generator of DC Machines

Answer»

Right CHOICE is (d) Armature resistance is non-zero

The explanation is: In case a and b, machine will tend to destroy the residual magnetism PRESENT in a CORE, which will not excite machine. When FIELD resistance value is more than critical value as seen from OCC, machine will not excite to appropriate value.
