In a Synchronous generator, Can AC voltage be used instead
of DC voltage in field winding of rotor to produce AC power?

Answer Posted / shelja singh

no we cant use AC voltage.if we use this then it will no
longer be called synchronous generator ,it will be called
induction generator as there will be two mmf waves and there
interaction will be same as that in an induction generator.

For a 6.6kV Motor it is recommended to do megger test with 500 V d.c and not more than 5kV d.c but the Hi voltage withstand test should be performed by 12kV AC. Why the dc voltage test should be limited but AC voltage withstand test could be with such a high voltage?
