why do you give the dc supply to field of alternator
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
The rotor of alternator consists of a coil of wire wrapped
around an iron core. Current through the wire coil -
called "field" current - produces a magnetic field around
the core. The strength of the field current determines the
strength of the magnetic field. The field current is D/C,
or direct current so that the current flows in one
direction only, and is supplied to the wire coil

Answer / rps
because we need constant magnetic flux so that windings of armature can cut them & induce emf.

Field requires poles of alternative(N &S) fixed
polarities,which is possible only with DC

Dear All, I am new in construction company , my boss ask a question at time of interview , If we have 60MW generation and Single Power Transformer step-up we have. if CMR 50/60MVA , ONAN, ONAF respectively , is it sufficient or not ? for that much power to transfer,

Dear Friends, I have a 500KVA transformer supplying whole factory having 3 phase and single phase mixed loads. Power room has ammeters connected via CTs for individual phase. Now I know that readings shown on meter for each phase say R,Y and B are line currents. But when I want to know the total on transformer do I need to add the currents of all three phases readings shown on meter or value for anyone phase will give me the correct power load on transformer for that point of time. 2. If ammeter shows unbalanced readings for R,Y, B phases say 150, 250 and 300 respectively so can I assume that 150A i.e average of 3 will be the 3phase load currents and remaining will be 1phase currents. Please clarify my doubt.
When will you multiply and devide with derating factors to the actual value while sizing the cable?
